Preface Audience The target audience for this reference guide is: • Administrators that are responsible for configuring and managing the D-Link Firewall. • Administrators that are responsible for troubleshooting the D-Link Firewall. This guide assumes that the reader is familiar with the D-Link Firewall, and has the necessary basic knowledge in network security. Notation The following notation is used throughout this reference guide when specifying the options of a command: Angle brackets or -option= Square brackets [option] or -option[=value] Curly brackets {value1 | value2 | value3} Ellipsis ... Used for specifying the name of an option or a description of a value. Used for specifying that an option or a value for an option is optional and can be omitted. Used for specifying the available values for an option. Used for specifying that more than one value can be specified for the option. Example 1. Command option notation One of the usages for the help command looks like this: help -category={COMMANDS | TYPES} [] This means that help has an option called category which has two possible values which are COMMANDS and TYPES. There is also an optional option called Topic which in this case is a search string used to specify what help topic to display. Since the topic is optional, it is possible to exclude it when running the command. Both of the following examples are valid for the usage described above: gw-world:/> help -category=COMMANDS gw-world:/> help -category=COMMANDS activate The usage for the routes command is: routes [-all] [-switched] [-flushl3cache[=]] [-num=] [-nonhost] [-tables] [-lookup=] [-verbose] [-setmtu=] [-cacheinfo] []... None of the options of this command are mandatory. The flushl3cache option also has an optional value. This is because that option has a default value, 100, which will be used if no value is specified. The following two examples will yield the same result: gw-world:/> routes -flushl3cache=100 gw-world:/> routes -flushl3cache 9
