3.3. Detailed How To

1. Define inputs:

   file = 'running-config log captuerd file for fw.log'    # fw log
   
   prefix = '10.10.10.0/24'
   

2. Import necessary package/modules:

   import fwOper as fw
   

3. Create Firewall Object:

   with open(file, 'r') as f:
           flst = f.readlines()
   
   insts = fw.get_object(fw.Instances, conf_list=flst)
   print(insts)                    # set of instances
   

4. Refereance to Instance to routes

   routes = insts['instance_name'].routes
   routes = insts.instance_name.routes
   print(routes)                   # all routes
   

   instance_name can be accepted in either bracket or dotted format. Use of bracket format is must if space/special characters involved in instance_name.

5. Operations on routes:

   print(routes)                           # all routes
   print(prefix in routes)         # bool: is prefix match any route.
   print(routes.prefix(prefix))    # matching route for given prefix
   print(routes.prefix(prefix).ifdesc)     # route description for matching route
   print(routes.prefix(prefix).route_line) # string prop ( object work without it )
