Hello,
I'm working with a client that has their Azure environment completely zoned and they are looking at implementing Express route. Their major concern here will be the routes that will be added via BGP:
"
all routes that are propagated from On-Prem via BGP will automatically be added to all subnet route tables pointing directly to the ExpressRoute GW deployed for the subnet.
This initially breaks the zoning model and we would need to override these routes manually with UDRs to steer the traffic back through our firewall(s) AND manually configure the firewall VMs routing to send traffic to the ExpressRoute Gateway."
The Firewall at the edge of the premise is a CheckPoint so I've asked that they approach CheckPoint and see if they can filter them there, I've also asked if they could approach the service provider implementing the Express Route to filter the routes being populated.
I was wondering if we could also do route filtering on the FortiGates in the Azure space or would the route population take place prior to the FortiGates?
I'm just trying to cover all the bases and present as many options as possible.
Regards,
Blair
