Asymmetric routing

Hi,

Is there any way to find if there is asymmetric routing (a tool or command?)?

I got so many packets dropped on 52.112.0.0/14 which is MS-Teams network.

This is happening all the time and people are complaining!

Any ideas?

all these packets are dropped for reason "First packet isn't SYN"

Check the routing on the FW, and run some tracing to see how traffic is actually going.

Any example of how to do it?

I got my CCSA but still newbie and do not know how to do these!

Is it in Expert mode? what command?

sk169154: Asymmetric Connections in ClusterXL R80.20 and Higher

An example will not really help much - better go thru the process together with a senior engineer or take a WireShark class.

The following will help you review the routing table and you can compare the interface identifiers in the log cards...

show route

netstat -rn

Another consideration could be the following as  resolved in R81.10 JHF T82 (refer also: sk180364).

PRJ-42445,
PRHF-26215

SecureXL

The Security Gateway may prematurely expire half-closed TCP connections and drop VoIP and HTTPS packets with "First packet isn't SYN".

Will this version have bugg in SecureXL?

Depends on the Jumbo Hotfix level (take), you can confirm via "cpinfo -y all" or work with TAC to verify that this is indeed the issue that you are encountering.

Installed R81.10 JumboTake 79 does contain all hotfixes from JT 9 up to JT 78, so also JT 38 ! I would suggest working with TAC on this to get it resolved quickly !

As you can see it could potentially be multiple somewhat related things and requires further diagnosis.

At this time I cannot blindly recommend installing JHF T82 as it is yet to reach "Recommended" status so you should first verify with TAC if this is relevant for your specific issue with the relevant debugs etc.

I.e. If your confident the routing checks out then move onto looking further into the packet captures / debugs with TAC.

We do know virtually nothing about your deployment, could you provide a topology ? Is the GW a GA cluster ?

This is a simple topology, we have cluster but only one is active

Hello,

Run a traceroute from a client pc. It may happen that the first tcp packet is reaching your WAN without going through the firewall but returning traffic is. A packet capture on your security gateway will confirm this.

Should i Traceroute my WAN address from a client?

With a packet capture on my security gateway, you mean capture packets of the same client PC?

If that right what is the command to run TCPdump on one client?

0 Kudos

Run a traceroute from client to a MS-Teams destination IP. For example:

tracert -d 52.112.120.205

 Have look at the hops. If you don't see your Security Gateway IP, there is a routing issue.

 

Packet capture should be ran in your fw01(or active cluster member for that matter) in expert mode and traffic must be generated on the client side(using tcping is good for this). For example:

tcpdump -nni any host [client IP] and host 52.112.120.205

 Good routing will show complete TCP handshake. Like this:

I hope it helps.

The trace was successful, i mean the trace showed my fw01 ip address. I tested from one site and i will test other sites also.

I collected some dumps, do you see anything wrong?

I don't see any Sync flags [S]. Run the capture again and export it to a file with -w <file.pcap>. Attach that file her to have good look at it. I believe you can always create an exception on your Inspection Settings. 

Paste the complete log detail from one of those drops too, to see the correct exception to apply.

"The capture file appears to have been cut short in the middle of a packet"

Hello,

Remove "-c 20" and add "-s 0" instead.

I am getting a new message from Wireshark:

The capture file appears to be damaged or corrupt.

(pcap: File has 1282454272-byte packet, bigger than maximum of 262144)

tcpdump -i any -nn -e -s 0 dst net 52.112.0.0/14 and port 443 -w /var/log/capture1.pcap
