Router Monitor<br />

Searching the <strong>FortiGate</strong> routing table<br />

Metric<br />

Gateway<br />

Interface<br />

Up Time<br />

The metric associated with the route type. The metric of a route influences<br />

how the <strong>FortiGate</strong> unit dynamically adds it to the routing table:<br />

• Hop count is used for routes learned through RIP.<br />

• Relative cost is used for routes learned through OSPF.<br />

• Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED) is used for this metric for routes learned<br />

through BGP. However, several attributes besides MED determine the<br />

best path to a destination network.<br />

The IP addresses of gateways to the destination networks.<br />

The interface through which packets are forwarded to the gateway of the<br />

destination network.<br />

The total accumulated amount of time that a route learned through RIP,<br />

OSPF, or BGP has been reachable.<br />

Searching the <strong>FortiGate</strong> routing table<br />

You can apply a filter to search the routing table and display certain routes only.<br />

For example, you can display static routes, connected routes, routes learned<br />

through RIP, OSPF, or BGP, and/or routes associated with the network or gateway<br />

that you specify.<br />

If you want to search the routing table by route type and further limit the display<br />

according to network or gateway, all of the values that you specify as search<br />

criteria must match corresponding values in the same routing table entry in order<br />

for that entry to be displayed (an implicit AND condition is applied to all of the<br />

search parameters you specify).<br />

For example, if the <strong>FortiGate</strong> unit is connected to network 172.16.14.0/24 and you<br />

want to display all directly connected routes to network 172.16.14.0/24, you must<br />

select Connected from the Type list, type 172.16.14.0/24 in the Network field,<br />

and then select Apply Filter to display the associated routing table entry or entries.<br />

Any entry that contains the word “Connected” in its Type field and the specified<br />

value in the Gateway field will be displayed.<br />

To search the <strong>FortiGate</strong> routing table<br />

1 Go to Router > Monitor > Routing Monitor.<br />

2 From the Type list, select the type of route to display. For example, select<br />

Connected to display all connected routes, or select RIP to display all routes<br />

learned through RIP.<br />

3 If you want to display routes to a specific network, type the IP address and<br />

netmask of the network in the Networks field.<br />

4 If you want to display routes to a specific gateway, type the IP address of the<br />

gateway in the Gateway field.<br />

5 Select Apply Filter.<br />

Note: All of the values that you specify as search criteria must match corresponding values<br />

in the same routing table entry in order for that entry to be displayed.<br />
