Routing Traffic between two VR's and Bytes Send and Receive info in GUI

MP18 — Sun, 03 Feb 2019 01:37:01 GMT

I was Testing the Connectivity between two end points for Testing Purpose only

Server(10.50.50.1)--------Sw1---------eth1/8----- PA-------------eth1/7-----------------Sw2-----------User PC(10.7.7.6)

PA VR1 has interface Eth1/7

PA VR2 has interface Eth1/8

Server IP 10.50.50.1

PC IP 10.7.7.6

Sw1 and Sw2 has point to point connections with PA.

1>User PC can ping PA Eth1/7 and Eth1/8 IP address.

2>VR2 has route to server 10.50.50.1 pointing to next VR which is VR1.

3>VR1 has no route back to 10.7.7.6 I did not add this deliberately

4>We have all the rules from PC to server.

Test I did

I try the ssh connection to server from PC and in GUI i see the bytes send and receive even though VR1 has no route back to the PC via VR2?

Need to know traffic log shows bytes send and receive in GUI

1>Are these bytes send and receive between two VR

2>Are these bytes send and receive between VR1 and PC

3>Are these bytes send and receive bertween VR2 and Server?

The bytes received will represent bytes received on eth1/8

The 2 vr are still inside the same vsys, so bytes counted are for the whole vsys

ie. the bytes counted are shared for the 2 vr, there will not be individual bytes for vr1 or vr2

so when user tries ssh via eth1/7 will not be that also be bytes received?

bytes received is traffic coming to firewall.

So correct me if i am wrong bytes received will be on both eth1/7 and eth1/8?

yes they are in same VR.

Same way bytes transmitted will be on both interfaces eth1/7 and eth1/8 right?

No

Bytes are counted for the session, independently of how many VR the packets pass
Bytes sent is what the client sends out, bytes received is what the server sends back
