Fireware “How To”
Dynamic Routing
How do I configure my Firebox to use OSPF?
Introduction
A routing protocol is the language a router speaks with other routers to share information about the status of network routing tables. With static routing, routing tables are set and do not change. If a router on the remote path fails,
a packet cannot get to its destination.
Dynamic routing lets routing tables in routers change as the routes change. If the best path to a destination cannot
be used, dynamic routing protocols change routing tables when necessary to keep your network traffic moving.
Fireware™ Pro gives support to RIP v1 and v2, OSPF, and BGP v4 dynamic routing protocols.
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is an interior routing protocol used in larger networks. With OSPF, a router that sees
a change to its routing table or that detects a change in the network immediately sends a multicast update to all
other routers in the network. OSPF is different from RIP because:
• OSPF sends only the part of the routing table that has changed in its transmission. RIP sends the full routing
table each time.
• OSPF sends a multicast only when its information has changed. RIP sends the routing table every 30 seconds.
Is there anything I need to know before I start?
To use any of the dynamic routing protocols with Fireware, you must import or type a dynamic routing configuration
file for the routing daemon you choose. This configuration file includes information such as a password and log file
name. You can find a sample BGP configuration file in this FAQ:
https://www.watchguard.com/support/advancedfaqs/fw_dynroute-ex.asp
Notes about configuration files:
• The “!” and the “#” characters are comment characters. If the first character of the word is one of the comment
characters, then the rest of the line is interpreted as a comment. If the comment character is not the first
character of the word, it is interpreted as a command.
• Usually, you can use the word “no” at the beginning of the line to disable a command. For example: “no network
10.0.0.0/24 area 0.0.0.0” disables the backbone area on the specified network.
There are also a few specific things it is important to understand about OSFP:
• If you have multiple OSPF areas, one area must be area 0.0.0.0 (the backbone area).
• All areas must be adjacent to the backbone area. If they are not adjacent to the backbone area, you must
configure a virtual link to the backbone area.
Supported OSPF routing commands to use in your routing daemon configuration file
To create or modify a routing configuration file, here is a catalog of supported routing commands. The sections must
appear in the configuration file in the same order they appear in this table.

0.0.0.Z

map not specified above
route-map [MAPNAME] permit [N]
Create a route map with name
[MAPNAME] and allow with a
priority of [N]
match ip address [LISTNAME]
OSPF Interface Cost table
The OSPF protocol finds the most efficient route between two points. To do this, it looks at factors such as interface
link speed, the number of hops between points, and other metrics. By default, OSPF uses the actual link speed of a
device to calculate the total cost of a route. You can set the interface cost manually to help maximize efficiency if, for
example, your gigabyte-based firewall is connected to a 100M router. Use the numbers in the OSPF Interface Cost
table to manually set the interface cost to a value different from the actual interface cost.

Configuring the Firebox to Use OSPF
1
From Policy Manager, select Network > Dynamic Routing.
The Dynamic Routing Setup dialog box appears.
2
3
4
Click the OSPF tab.
Click Enable Dynamic Routing and Enable OSPF.
Click Import to import a routing daemon configuration file, or type your configuration parameters in the text
box.
If you click Import, you can browse to the location of the OSPF daemon configuration file. It is located in C:\Documents and
Settings\My Documents\My WatchGuard.
5
Click OK.
Allowing OSPF Traffic Through the Firebox
You must add and configure a policy to allow OSPF multicasts from the routers that have OSPF enabled to the
reserved multicast addresses for OSPF.
1
From Policy Manager, select Edit > Add Policies. From the list of packet filters, select OSPF. Click Add.
The New Policy Properties window appears for OSPF.
4
2
In the New Policy Properties window, configure the policy to allow traffic from the IP or network address of the
router using OSPF to the IP addresses 224.0.0.5 and 224.0.0.6. Click OK.
Frequently Asked Questions About This Procedure
What’s the best way to get started?
To get started, you only need two commands in your OSPF configuration file. These two commands, in this order,
will start the OSPF process:
router OSPF
network <network IP address of the interface you want the process to listen on and
distribute through the protocol> area <area ID in x.x.x.x format, such as 0.0.0.0>
On the Firebox, you also need to add the OSPF policy as described in the document above. You can configure the
policy to allow “any” to “any” until you are sure OSPF is working, and then restrict the policy as recommended
above.
Finally, you must set up the router for the Firebox to talk to. After it is configured, look at the Firebox Status Report
dynamic routing section to verify that the Firebox and the router are sending updates to each other. You can then
add authentication and restrict the OSPF policy to listen only on the correct interfaces.
What are some useful Cisco commands for troubleshooting dynamic routing?
From the enable mode on the Cisco router:
show ip route -- shows the routing table for the router
show ip ospf neighbor -- shows the neighbor relationships specific to that router
debug ip ospf events -- shows all the OSPF occurrences on the router. Use this command with caution as you can
get too much information and/or crash the router
undebug ip ospf events -- turn off the debug function
