Example: Configuring a Filter to Accept OSPF Packets from a Prefix

This example shows how to configure a standard stateless firewall filter to accept packets from a trusted source.

Requirements

No special configuration beyond device initialization is required before configuring this example.

Overview

In this example, you create a filter that accepts only OSPF packets from an address in the prefix 10.108.0.0/16, discarding all other packets with an administratively-prohibited ICMP message

Configuration

The following example requires you to navigate various levels in the configuration hierarchy. For information about navigating the CLI, see Using the CLI Editor in Configuration Mode.

To configure this example, perform the following tasks:

CLI Quick Configuration

To quickly configure this example, copy the following configuration commands into a text file, remove any line breaks, and then paste the commands into the CLI at the [edit] hierarchy level.

set firewall family inet filter ospf_filter term term1 from source-address 10.108.0.0/16 set firewall family inet filter ospf_filter term term1 from protocol ospf set firewall family inet filter ospf_filter term term1 then acceptset firewall family inet filter ospf_filter term default-term then reject administratively-prohibitedset interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet address 10.1.2.3/30set interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet filter input ospf_filter

Configure the Stateless Firewall Filter

Step-by-Step Procedure

To configure the stateless firewall filter ospf_filter:

  1. Create the filter.

    [edit]user@host# edit firewall family inet filter ospf_filter
  2. Configure the term that accepts packets.

    [edit firewall family inet filter ospf_filter]user@host# set term term1 from source-address 10.108.0.0/16 user@host# set term term1 from protocol ospf user@host# set term term1 then accept
  3. Configure the term that rejects all other packets.

    [edit firewall family inet filter ospf_filter]user@host# set term default_term then reject administratively-prohibited

Apply the Firewall Filter to the Loopback Interface

Step-by-Step Procedure

To apply the firewall filter to the loopback interface:

  1. Configure the interface.

    [edit]user@host# edit interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet
  2. Configure the logical interface IP address.

    [edit interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet]user@host# set address 10.1.2.3/30
  3. Apply the filter to the input.

    [edit interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet]user@host# set filter input ospf_filter

Confirm and Commit Your Candidate Configuration

Step-by-Step Procedure

To confirm and then commit your candidate configuration:

  1. Confirm the configuration of the stateless firewall filter by entering the show firewall configuration mode command. If the command output does not display the intended configuration, repeat the instructions in this example to correct the configuration.

    [edit]user@host# show firewall
    family inet {filter ospf_filter {term term1 {from {source-address {10.108.0.0/16;}protocol ospf;}then {accept;}}term default_term {then {reject administratively-prohibited; # default reject action}}}}
  2. Confirm the configuration of the interface by entering the show interfaces configuration mode command. If the command output does not display the intended configuration, repeat the instructions in this example to correct the configuration.

    [edit]user@host# show interfaces
    lo0 {unit 0 {family inet {filter {input ospf_filter;}address 10.1.2.3/30;}}}
  3. If you are done configuring the device, commit your candidate configuration.

    [edit]user@host# commit

Verification

To confirm that the configuration is working properly, enter the show firewall filter ospf_filter operational mode command.
