ipfilter 2 --clone -from src_policyname Creates a replica of an existing IP filter policy. The cloned policy is stored in a temporary buffer with same rules as the policy it mirrored. --show [policyname] Displays the IP filter policy content for the specified policy name, or all IP filter policies if policyname is not specified. For each IP filter policy, the policy name, type, persistent state, and policy rules are displayed. The policy rules are listed by the rule number in ascending order. There is no pagination stop for multiple screens of information. Pipe the output to the more command to achieve this. If a temporary buffer exists for a IP filter policy, the --show sub-command displays the content in the temporary buffer, with the persistent state set to modified defined or modified active. --save [policyname] Saves one or all IP filter policies persistently as defined configuration. Policyname is optional, if used, the IP filter policy in temporary buffer will be saved; otherwise, all IP filter policies in the temporary buffer will be saved. Only the CLI session that owns the updated temporary buffer can run this command. Modification to an active policy cannot be saved without being applied. Therefore, --save is blocked for the active policies, instead use --activate. --activate Activates the specified IP filter policy. IP filter policies are not enforced until they are activated. Only one IP filter policy per IPv4 and IPv6 type can be active. If there is a temporary buffer for the policy, the policy is saved to the defined configuration and activated at the same time. If there is no temporary buffer for the policy, the policy existing in the defined configuration will become active. The policy to be activated will replace the existing active policy of the same type. Activating the default IP filter policies will return the IP management interface to its default state. An IP filter policy without any rule cannot be activated. This operand prompts for a user confirmation before proceeding. --delete Deletes the specified IP filter policy. Deleting an IP filter policy removes it from the temporary buffer. To permanently delete the policy from persistent database, issue ipfilter --save. An active IP filter policy cannot be deleted. --addrule Adds a new rule to the specified IP filter policy. The change made to the specified IP filter policy is not saved to persistent configuration until a save or activate is run. See the following sub commands for --addrule: -sip Specifies the source IP address. For IPV4 filter type, the address must be a 32 bit address in dot notation, or a CIDR style IPv4 prefix. For IPv6 filter type, the address must be in a 128 bit IPv6 address in any format specified by RFC, or a CIDR style IPv6 prefix. -dp Fabric OS Command Reference Manual 309 53-1000436-01
