Advertise a subnet without an interface over OSPF on FTD

Nikolaos Milas

Hello,

I am on FTD2130.

I have configured various interfaces with their respective subnets and they are advertised successfully over OSPF.

I want to advertise over OSPF a subnet which includes public addresses to be used as NAT gateways (for various private networks).

I know that in OSPF the network command does not directly specify the network that should be advertised to other routers. Instead, it defines a range of addresses, and if any interface's own IP address falls into that range, the protocol will advertise the whole network of that interface as-is.

How can I configure OSPF on FTD to advertise this particular subnet - which is NOT associated with any interface - so that all network knows that this subnet is "parked" on the FTD device?

Thanks,
Nick

try use Null0 if you see drop then use ISP IP as GW.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I would like to ask: What do I use as a gateway? The "outside" interface IP Address on FTD is not accepted as a gateway. "outside" is also selected in "Interface" field.

Instead of configuring a "particular" interface (during static route configuration), should I configure it as a "Null0" interface (which does not require a gateway)? It seems to be working like that.

Thanks,
Nick

I confirmed it works fine with Null0.

Thanks a lot.
