Check Link Hook

This example demonstrates how to process outgoing NHRP traffic in a scenario using one Tunnel with GRE encapsulation.

Test Marks In NHRP Traffic

Description

In this scenario, a traffic policy was configured to log outgoing NHRP traffic, which is non-IP Layer 3 protocol. The special hook link-out can be used to process these outgoing frames.

Scenario

Step 1: Set the following configuration in DUT0 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 192.168.100.10/24
set interfaces tunnel tun0 address 10.0.0.1/32
set interfaces tunnel tun0 encapsulation gre
set interfaces tunnel tun0 local-address 192.168.100.10
set interfaces tunnel tun0 nhrp
set interfaces tunnel tun0 traffic policy link-in LOG_NHRP
set interfaces tunnel tun0 traffic policy link-out LOG_NHRP
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'
set traffic policy LOG_NHRP rule 1 log prefix NHRP__
set traffic policy LOG_NHRP rule 1 selector NHRP_SEL
set traffic selector NHRP_SEL rule 1 ether-type 8193

Note

NHRP packets use ethertype 8193 (0x2001).

Step 2: Set the following configuration in DUT1 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 192.168.100.20/24
set interfaces tunnel tun0 address 10.0.0.2/32
set interfaces tunnel tun0 encapsulation gre
set interfaces tunnel tun0 local-address 192.168.100.20
set interfaces tunnel tun0 nhrp holdtime 5
set interfaces tunnel tun0 nhrp nhs 10.0.0.1 nbma 192.168.100.10
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Step 3: Run the command protocols ip show nhrp on DUT0 and check whether the output matches the following regular expressions:

tun0\s+dynamic\s+10\.0\.0\.2
Show output
Iface      Type     Protocol         NBMA             Claimed NBMA     Expires(s)   Flags  Identity
tun0       local    10.0.0.1         192.168.100.10   192.168.100.10   -                   -
tun0       dynamic  10.0.0.2         192.168.100.20   192.168.100.20   4             T

Step 4: Run the command system journal show | cat on DUT0 and check whether the output matches the following regular expressions:

\[NHRP__-1\] ACCEPT IN=tun0 OUT=\w+
\[NHRP__-1\] ACCEPT IN= OUT=tun0
Show output
