As a cluster administrator, you can list the names of any existing egress firewalls and view the traffic rules for a specific egress firewall.

You can view an `EgressFirewall` CR in your cluster.

**Prerequisites**

- A cluster using the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin.
- Install the OpenShift Command-line Interface (CLI), commonly known as `oc`.

   ```terminal
   $ oc get egressfirewall --all-namespaces
   ```
2. To inspect a policy, enter the following command. Replace `<policy_name>` with the name of the policy to inspect.

   ```terminal
   $ oc describe egressfirewall <policy_name>
   ```
