Can FortiGate do routing?
FortiGate will first check regular policy routes before coming to SD-WAN policy routes (if any) and then the routing table. Verification of Configuration and troubleshooting. For example, generate some test traffic from the configured source ip / subnet and check on the traffic logs for the outgoing interface.
How do I scan IPv6 with nmap?
To use Nmap with IPv6, both the source and target of your scan must be configured for IPv6. If your ISP (like most of them) does not allocate IPv6 addresses to you, free tunnel brokers are widely available and work fine with Nmap.
What is policy routing in FortiGate?
Policy routing enables you to redirect traffic away from a static route. The FortiGate unit will refer to the routing table in an attempt to match the information in the packet header with a route in the routing table. Policy route options define which attributes of a incoming packet cause policy routing to occur.
What is IPv6 subnet?
IPv6 addresses use 128 bits to represent an address which includes bits to be used for subnetting. Using these subnet bits, an organization can have another 65 thousands of subnets which is by far, more than enough. Thus routing prefix is /64 and host portion is 64 bits.
What is difference between static route and policy route FortiGate?
Policy routing enables you to redirect traffic away from a static route. This can be useful if you want to route certain types of network traffic differently. If no policy route matches the packet, the FortiGate unit routes the packet using the routing table.
Is there a way to enable IPv6 on FortiGate?
To enable IPv6: Both FortiGate units are connected to the ISP router and the internal network. This configuration provides some redundancy for the R&D internal network enabling it to reach the internet at all times. All internal computers use RIP routing, so no static routing is required. And all internal computers use IPv6 addresses.
Can a FortiGate firewall be deployed behind a DHCP server?
It’s really great that the FortiGate firewalls have a DHCPv6 server implemented. With this mandatory service, IPv6-only networks can be deployed directly behind a FortiGate because the stateless DHCPv6 server provides the DNS server addresses. (This is unlike Palo Alto or Cisco which have no DHCPv6 server implemented.)
What kind of IPsec does FortiOS support?
FortiOS supports route-based IPv6 IPsec, but not policy-based. This section describes how IPv6 IPsec support differs from IPv4 IPsec support. Where both the gateways and the protected networks use IPv6 addresses, sometimes called IPv6 over IPv6, you can create either an auto-keyed or manually-keyed VPN.
Which is IPv4 address does a VPN gateway use?
IPv4 over IPv6 The VPN gateways have IPv6 addresses. The protected networks have IPv4 addresses. The phase 2 configurations at either end use IPv4 selectors. The VPN gateways have IPv4 addresses. The protected networks use IPv6 addresses. The phase 2 configurations at either end use IPv6 selectors.
