Routing Tab
The following table describes the virtual router’s runtime
stats for the Route
Table, Forwarding
Table, and the Static
Route Monitoring table.
Runtime Stat | Description |
---|---|
Route Table | |
Route Table | Select Unicast or Multicast to
display either the unicast or multicast route table. |
Display Address Family | Select IPv4 Only , IPv6
Only , or IPv4 and IPv6 (default)
to control which group of addresses to display in the table. |
Destination | IPv4 address and netmask or IPv6 address
and prefix length of networks the virtual router can reach. |
Next Hop | IP address of the device at the next hop
toward the Destination network. A next hop of 0.0.0.0 indicates
the default route. |
Metric | Metric for the route. When a routing protocol
has more than one route to the same destination network, it prefers
the route with the lowest metric value. Each routing protocol uses
a different type of metric; for example, RIP uses hop count. |
Weight | Weight for the route. For example, when
BGP has more than one route to the same destination, it will prefer
the route with the highest weight. |
Flags |
|
Age | Age of the route entry in the routing table.
Static routes have no age. |
Interface | Egress interface of the virtual router that
will be used to reach the next hop. |
Refresh | Click to refresh the runtime stats in the
table. |
Forwarding Table The
firewall chooses the best route—from the route table (RIB) toward
a destination network—to place in the FIB. | |
Display Address Family | Select IPv4 Only , IPv6
Only , or IPv4 and IPv6 (default)
to control which route table to display. |
Destination | Best IPv4 address and netmask or IPv6 address
and prefix length to a network the virtual router can reach, selected
from the Route Table. |
Next Hop | IP address of the device at the next hop
toward the Destination network. A next hop of 0.0.0.0 indicates
the default route. |
Flags |
|
Interface | Egress interface the virtual router will
use to reach the next hop. |
MTU | Maximum transmission unit (MTU); maximum
number of bytes that the firewall will transmit in a single TCP
packet to this destination. |
Refresh | Click to refresh the runtime stats in the
table. |
Static Route Monitoring | |
Destination | IPv4 address and netmask or IPv6 address
and prefix length of a network the virtual router can reach. |
Next Hop | IP address of the device at the next hop
toward the Destination network. A next hop of 0.0.0.0 indicates
the default route. |
Metric | Metric for the route. When there is more
than one static route to the same destination network, the firewall
prefers the route with the lowest metric value. |
Weight | Weight for the route. |
Flags |
|
Interface | Egress interface of the virtual router that
will be used to reach the next hop. |
Path Monitoring (Fail On) | If path monitoring is enabled for this static
route, Fail On indicates:
If static route path
monitoring is disabled, Fail On indicates Disabled . |
Status | Status of the static route based on ICMP
pings to the monitored destinations: Up , Down ,
or path monitoring for the static route is Disabled . |
Refresh | Refreshes the runtime stats in the table. |
