fwb_pix(1) Firewall Builder fwb_pix(1)NAME
fwb_ipt - Policy compiler for Cisco PIX
SYNOPSISfwb_pix-fdata_file.xml [-V] [-dwdir] [-i] [-v] [-xc] [-xt] object_name
DESCRIPTIONfwb_pix is firewall policy compiler component of Firewall Builder (see
fwbuilder(1)). Compiler reads objects definitions and firewall descrip‐
tion from the data file specified with "-f" option and generates resul‐
tant Cisco PIX configuration file. The configuration is written to the
file with the name the same as the name of the firewall object, plus
extension ".fw".
The data file and the name of the firewall objects must be specified on
the command line. Other command line parameters are optional.
OPTIONS-f FILE
Specify the name of the data file to be processed.
-d wdir
Specify working directory. Compiler creates file with PIX con‐
figuration in this directory. If this parameter is missing,
then PIX configuration will be placed in the current working
directory.
-v Be verbose: compiler prints diagnostic messages when it works.
-V Print version number and quit.
-i When this option is present, the last argument on the command
line is supposed to be firewall object ID rather than its name
-xc When output file name is determined automatically (i.e. flags -o
or -O are not present), the file name is composed of the cluster
name and member firewall name rather than just member firewall
name. This is used mostly for testing when the same member fire‐
wall object can be a part of different clusters with different
configurations.
-xt This flag makes compiler treat all fatal errors as warnings and
continue processing rules. Generated configuration script most
likely will be incorrect but will include error message as a
comment; this flag is used for testing and debugging.
