2.1.5. CLI Scripts Chapter 2. Management and Maintenance address 10.8.1.34 is now possible using a web browser. If SSH management access is required then a RemoteMgmtSSH object should be added. The assumption made with the above commands is that an all-nets route exists to the ISP's gateway. In other words, Internet access has been enabled for the NetDefend Firewall. Managing Management Sessions with sessionmanager The CLI provides a command called sessionmanager for managing management sessions themselves. The command be used to manage all types of management sessions, including: • Secure Shell (SSH) CLI sessions. • Any CLI session through the serial console interface. • Secure Copy (SCP) sessions. • Web Interface sessions connected by HTTP or HTTPS. The command without any options gives a summary of currently open sessions: gw-world:/> sessionmanager Session Manager status Active connections : 3 Maximum allowed connections : 64 Local idle session timeout : 900 NetCon idle session timeout : 600 To see a list of all sessions use the -list option. Below is some typical output showing the local console session: gw-world:/> sessionmanager -list User Database IP Type Mode Access local (none) 0.0.0.0 local console admin If the user has full administrator privileges, they can forcibly terminate another management session using the -disconnect option of the sessionmanager command. The sessionmanager command options are fully documented in the CLI Reference Guide. 2.1.5. CLI Scripts To allow the administrator to easily store and execute sets of CLI commands, NetDefendOS provides a feature called CLI scripting. A CLI script is a predefined sequence of CLI commands which can be executed after they are saved to a file and the file is then uploaded to the NetDefend Firewall. The steps for creating a CLI script are as follows: 1. Create a text file with a text editor containing a sequential list of CLI commands, one per line. The D-Link recommended convention is for these files to use the file extension .sgs (Security Gateway Script). The filename, including the extension, should not be more than 16 characters. 2. Upload the file to the NetDefend Firewall using Secure Copy (SCP). Script files must be stored 44
