General tab
In this tab, you can enable either version of BIRD, and configure dynamic routing, notably in high availability architectures.
General configuration
| BIRD v2 | Enables or disables the use of the BIRD v2 dynamic routing engine. |
| IPv4 BIRD v1 | Enables or disables the use of the BIRD v1 dynamic routing engine only for IPv4 routes. |
| IPv6 BIRD v1 | Enables or disables the use of the BIRD v1 dynamic routing engine only for IPv6 routes. |
| IPv4 and IPv6 BIRD v1 | Enables or disables the use of the BIRD v1 dynamic routing engine for IPv4 and IPv6 routes. |
Advanced properties
| Restart dynamic routing when the firewall becomes active (high availability) |
In a cluster that implements the OSPF dynamic routing protocol, the active firewall adopts the role of a Designated Router (DR). This option makes it possible to ensure that during a switch the active firewall does not fail to detect that it has inherited the role of OSPF Designated Router. It is enabled by default. This field can only be accessed in the IPv4 dynamic routing tab. |
| Add IPv4 networks distributed via dynamic routing to the table of protected networks |
In the table listing the intrusion prevention system's protected networks, this option makes it possible to automatically inject networks propagated by the IPv4 dynamic routing engine. |
| Add IPv6 networks distributed via dynamic routing to the table of protected networks |
In the table listing the intrusion prevention system's protected networks, this option makes it possible to automatically inject networks propagated by the IPv6 dynamic routing engine. |
