Configure OSPF Routing on FTD via FDM

Introduction

This document describes how to configure OSPF routing on the Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) managed by the Firepower Device Manager (FDM).

Prerequisites

Requirements

Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of these topics:

• FDM

• FTD

• OSPF

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:

• FTD version 6.4.0 or later and is managed by the FDM

• All physical and virtual platforms

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Configurations

In this scenario you are configuring OSPF on the FTD and R1 router of Network Diagram.
You are configuring OSPF on FTD and Router for 3 subnets.

Step 1. To Configure Access the Smart CLI on FTD.

• Log into the FDM, choose Device:Firepower > Advanced Configuration > Smart CLI > Routing > Create New >  Add name > CLI Templete >OSPF.

Advanced Configuration on FDM GUI

• (Access routing section  and then add with the + icon.)

Routing Selection for OSPF

• Access each configuration template command as per the requirement of your network topology.

• The configuration in the document is completed with the referenced Network Diagram.

Step 2: Configure the Parameters on Smart CLI Object

Step 5: Verify the Configuration on FTD CLI 

• Verify with show run router ospf command on CLI.

Verification of Config on FTD CLI

Verify

To verify on the config on FTD CLI:  

• show route — check for OSPF O routes being advertised.
• show ospf neighbour

To verify the config on Router:

• show ip route — check for OSPF  O routes being advertised.

• show ip ospf neighbor
