The key aspect of an OSPF setup is that connected NetDefend Firewalls share the information in
their routing tables so that traffic entering an interface on one of the firewalls can be automatically
routed so that it exits the interface on another gateway which is attached to the correct destination
network.
Another important aspect is that the firewalls monitor the connections between each other and route
traffic by an alternate connection if one is available. A network topology can therefore be designed
to be fault tolerant. If a connection between two firewalls fails then any alternate route that also
reaches the destination will be used.
4.5.3. OSPF Components
This section looks at the NetDefendOS objects that need to be configured for OSPF routing.
Defining these objects creates the OSPF network. The objects should be defined on each NetDefend
Firewall that is part of the OSPF network and should describe the same network.
An illustration of the relationship between NetDefendOS OSPF objects is shown below.
Figure 4.12. NetDefendOS OSPF Objects
4.5.3.1. OSPF Router Process
This object defines the autonomous system (AS) which is the top level of the OSPF network. A
similar Router Process object should be defined on each NetDefend Firewall which is part of the
OSPF network.
General Parameters
Name
Specifies a symbolic name for the OSPF AS.
Router ID
Specifies the IP address that is used to identify the router in a
AS. If no Router ID is configured, the firewall computes the
Router ID based on the highest IP address of any interface
participating in the OSPF AS.
Private Router ID
This is used in an HA cluster and is the ID for this firewall and
