NAME

Device::PaloAlto::Firewall::Test- Run a suite of tests against Palo Alto firewalls.

VERSION

version 0.04

SYNOPSIS

This module contains a set of methods that run tests against an Palo Alto firewall. The functions take arguments and return 1 or 0 depending on the current runtime state of the firewall.

These methods should be used in conjunction with the ok() function provided by Test::More.

    use Device::PaloAlto::Firewall
    use Test::More;

SUBROUTINES

interfaces_up

    ok( $fw_test->interfaces_up(interfaces => ['ethernet1/1', 'ethernet./(2|3)']) );

interfaces_up takes an ARRAYREF that contains interface match criteria. Returns 0 if any of the interfaces matched are down. Internally the sub uses a case insensitive regex to create an array of interfaces that match all of the match criteria. Consider the following values of the 'interfaces' parameter:

  • [ ] - will warn that the ARRAYREF is empty, however the sub will return 1 as no interfaces matches are 'down'.

  • ['ethrnt1/1'] - a typo or any criteria that causes no interfaces to be matched will warn, however the sub will return 1 as no interfaces matched are 'down'.

  • ['ethrnt1/1', 'ethernet1/2'] - if 'ethrnt1/1' matches no interfaces, and 'ethernet1/2' does, the return value will depend on whether 'ethernet1/2' is 'up' or 'down'.

interfaces_duplex

    ok( $fw_test->interfaces_duplex(interfaces => ['ethernet1/1', 'ethernet./(2|3)']) );

interfaces_duplex takes an ARRAYREF of interface match criteria. The match criteria can contain regex. See interfaces_up for some of the nuances around the matching.

It returns 1 if all of the interfaces are in a full duplex state. If any are not, it returns 0. If the device is a VM, physical interface state cannot be determined. The function will emit a warning, however it will still return a successful test.

routes_exist

    ok( 
        $fw_test->routes_exist(
            vrouter => 'virt_router_a',
            routes => ['192.0.2.0/30', '192.0.2.128/25']
        )
    );

routes_exist takes an ARRAYREF of routes and searches for these routes in the virtual router specified by vrouter. If all of the exact routes are present in the routing table it returns 1. If any exact routes are not present, it returns 0.

routes is mandatory. vrouter is optional, and is set to 'default' if not specified. An empty ARRAYREF will emit a warning but will still return 1.

bgp_peers_up

    ok( 
        $fw_test->bgp_peers_ip(
            vrouter => 'virt_router_a',
            peer_ips => ['192.0.2.1', '192.0.2.20']
        )
    );

Returns 1 if all of the BGP peers specified in the peer_ips are established. Returns 0 if any of the peers are not in the established state.

vrouter specifies the virtual router that the BGP peers are configured under. If not supplied, the vrouter 'default' will be used.

ntp_synchronised

    ok( $fw_test->ntp_synchronised() );

Returns 0 if the firewall is not synchronised with an NTP peer. Returns 1 if the firewall is synchronised with at least one NTP peer.

ntp_reachable

    ok ( $fw_test->ntp_reachable() );

Returns 1 if all of the configured NTP servers are reachable. Returns 0 if any of the configured NTP servers are not reachable.
