Study Notes
Sophos Firewall Dynamic Routing
- Sophos Firewall supports four dynamic routing protocols: RIP, OSPF, BGP, and PIM-SM
- Each protocol has suitable use cases:
- RIP: Simple, small networks
- OSPF: Efficient, scalable, enterprise networks
- BGP: Large networks, internet routing
- PIM-SM: Multicast routing, low volumes of subscribers
Dynamic Routing Configuration
- Configuration methods: WebAdmin or CLI; both yield same results
- RIP configuration steps are detailed
- OSPF configuration steps are outlined
- BGP configuration steps, including global and local configurations, are detailed
Routing Protocols
- RIP (Routing Information Protocol):
- Simple compared to other routing protocols
- Limited to smaller networks
- OSPF (Open Shortest Path First):
- Popular for enterprise networks
- Scalable
- Suitable for private networks of all sizes
- BGP (Border Gateway Protocol):
- Used for very large networks or for internet routing
- Can be for internal or external routing and doesn't depend on using BGP for internal routing
- Commonly used between Internet service providers to share routes.
- PIM-SM (Protocol Independent Multicast Sparse Mode):
- Multicast group routing
- Used for low volumes of subscribers
CLI Configuration
- Detailed commands for configuring RIP, OSPF, and BGP using the CLI
- Includes enabling, configuring networks, and other configurations
WebAdmin Configuration
- Detailed configuration steps for RIP and OSPF using the WebAdmin interface
- Setting up global configurations, networks, and areas
- Demonstrates how to override global configuration options by interface.
Routing Information Display
- Sophos Firewall allows viewing routing information via the GUI with detailed information.
- Displaying information on RIP, OSPF, BGP, and PIM-SM
- BGP route details are shown as an example
Chapter Summary
- Sophos Firewall supports four dynamic routing methods
- Dynamic routing configuration can be done via the web admin or the CLI
- Detailed routing information can be viewed in the web admin for configured dynamic routing from the Routing information tab
