Routing processing order (VPN, PBR, Routing Table)

Hi,

I would like to know the order of processing routes in a security gateway.

 

Main purpose is to apply PBR rules on traffic that decrypted from site to site VPN or from VPN Routing. is this possible?

Okay, that makes sense. Unfortunately, you cannot do PBR and VPN on the same box. What is feasible is breaking VPN tunnel on another device and then send traffic to PBR box. You can actually achieve this with VSX.

Can you elaborate of the use case?

I'm trying to implement site to site VPN and avoid asymmetric routing.
Let's say we have two sites connected through a GW cluster each site, both managed by the same Security Management.

VPN FWs are connected (via switch) to Core FW (which acts as the default gateway in the network) at each site

VPN FWs are also directly connected to each segment in the network to reduce traffic on Core FW

traffic between VPN domains in this case is going through asymmetric paths and it makes applications go slow (or even not work)

I would like to force traffic between VPN domains to be routed to the Core FW regardless of directly connected subnets in the system routing table

I hope this was clear because I know it's not a usual use-case.

Hello Val,

do the restrictions to PBR just hit the networks/IP-Range/IF touched by PBR or have these restrictions impact to the whole gateway?
