How to get Rule based Zone/Interface details

[Veeraselvam_man]

I am using "show-access-rulebase" API to get rule details, but the JSON output not contains rule vs Zone/Interface mapping details, but in the syslog contains accessed rule and interface details.

Is there any way to find out corresponding rule interface/zone?

What the API outputs as part of show-rulebase are the UIDs of the objects in the rules.

An objects dictionary is also returned, which dereferences all the UIDs, including the zones.

Dameon Welch-Abernathy‌:

Interface/zone UID objects are not available in the rulebase and objects dictionary.

Example:

In my test setup, i added below test rules:

Below is the syslog print:

In this case "show-access-rulebase" output is not contains "eth0" interface details, How to get rule("allow rule") and interface ("eth0") mapping.

Is there any way to configure source/destination interfaces in access rule.

[PhoneBoy]

Interfaces cannot be configured as a source/destination in rules so it will never show as part of the rulebases.

The zones used in a rule most definitely show up in the object directory just like any other object.

Will post an example later.

Thank you Dameon Welch-Abernathy‌

For the following rulebase:

You get the following output from show access-rulebase (relevant bits bolded).

As you can see:

• The UID for InternalZone and ExternalZone are listed in the source/destination of the rule.
• The UID for both InternalZone and ExternalZone also exist in the objects dictionary.

Just to make sure this wasn't unique to R80.20 (where I initially checked this), I also tested this in R80.10 in Demo Mode.

Oh, I see the problem--your rule does not list any zones as source or destinations.

As such, querying the rulebase will not give you this information.

Your best bet is to query the gateway that accepted the connection (by name or UID) using show simple-gateway.

One potential issue I see is that you won't see the interface zone if you use the "default" zone for that interface (i.e. "According to topology"):

In this case, you'll have to work it out from the interface topology which interfaces are InternalZone or ExternalZone.

In this case, it's eth0.

For others not marked as topology external, you can assume they are in the InternalZone if one is not listed.

In the case of eth2, I set an explicit zone for that interface.
