| Scope | FortiGate. |
| Solution |
There might be scenarios where an incorrect default gateway for a static route causes the routing issue. Use the following CLI command to make sure that configured default gateway for an interface is correct in the static route configuration;
get system arp
Here, the IP address associated with the ARP entry of that interface. This IP address is the default gateway of the interface.
Use that IP address to create the static route or to verify the default gateway of the static route configured:
The steps in this article apply to PPPoE/DHCP interfaces. For instructions on how to configure these interfaces, see Technical Tip: Static route for DHCP/PPPoE interfaces with dynamic gateway. |
