Fortigate 5.4.9 Routing Issue

Dear ALL,

 

I have a question about the Routing Issue.

Routing issues were detected yesterday afternoon in a firewall running on version 5.4.9 of the FortiOS.

Due to current routing issues, there were no service issues, but management access was not possible with each firewall.

 

[firewall Settings] - FortiGate3100D(5.4 Patch9) - HA : Standalone mode, Vdom : enable mgmt ip : 192.168.1.6 - FortiGate101E(5.4 Patch9) - HA : Standalone mode, Vdom : enable mgmt ip : 192.168.1.250

 

[Issue information] - management access was not possible with each firewall.

- As a result of packet capture at the firewall, the SYN packet which tried GUI Access from the administrator's PC(192.168.120.15) was confirmed. However, the firewall does not export SYN + ACK packets.

- We tested ICMP / SSH / HTTPS etc, but the result was the same.

- The target of the "exec traceroute" command of the firewall has been specified as the administrator PC. However, the output value was identified as loopback ip with "127.0.0.1".

e.g) exec trace route exec trace route 192.168.120.15

traceroute to 192.168.120.15 (192.168.120.15), 32 hops max, 3 probe packets per hot, 84 byte packes [style="background-color: #ffff00;"]1 127.0.0.1 <localhost> 2991.668 ms !H 3000.442 ms !H^C *[/style]

- The applied routing table is as follows.

e.g) config router static edit 2 set dst 192.168.120.0 255.255.255.0 set gateway 192.168.1.253 set deice mgmt1 next

- And as a result of adding host routing to the routing table, it became normal to communicate.

e.g) config route static edit 3 set dst 192.168.120.15 255.255.255.255 set gateway 192.168.1.253 set device mgmt1 next

- Also, after deleting the above "edit 3" routing, access was still possible.

- At the time of the problem, "rtcache" had the IP "192.168.1.254" instead of the Default GW IP.

Is the current symptom a bug?

could you explain your network infrastructure please?

It is quite hard to understand your problem without knowing it.
