2.1.6. Secure Copy Chapter 2. Management and Maintenance Tip: Listing commands at the console To list the created CLI commands on the console instead of saving them to a file, leave out the option -name= in the script -create command. Certain aspects of a configuration which are hardware dependent cannot have a script file entry created when using the -create option. This is true when the CLI node type in the script -create command is one of: • COMPortDevice • Ethernet • EthernetDevice • Device These node types are skipped when the script file is created and NetDefendOS gives the message No objects of selected category or type. Commenting Script Files Any line in a script file that begins with the # character is treated as a comment. For example: # The following line defines the If1 IP address add IP4Address If1_ip Address=10.6.60.10 Scripts Running Other Scripts It is possible for one script to run another script. For example, the script my_script.sgs could contain the line: " " script -execute -name my_script2.sgs " " NetDefendOS allows the script file my_script2.sgs to execute another script file and so on. The maximum depth of this script nesting is 5. 2.1.6. Secure Copy To upload and download files to or from the NetDefend Firewall, the secure copy (SCP) protocol can be used.

The basic command used here is scp followed by the source and destination for the file transfer. Upload is performed with the command: > scp 48
