Is Policy Based Forwarding the same as Policy Based Routing?
I have a lot of PBR on the old CheckPoint FW and need to get them over to the Palo. The only thing I could really find was PBF and was wondering if that was the same thing???
Well, no :) PBF forwards a packet out of an interface. If you don't configure a next hop, it just releases the packet out of the interface to fend for itself (on a tunnel interface that works pretty well, on a layer2 network that also might work)All PBF actions take place _before_ the routing table is checked so it bypasses routing completely, PBR is part of routing
Were you able to configure PBF to do what you need it to do?
