NAME

       fwb_ipt - Policy compiler for Cisco IOS ACL

SYNOPSIS

       fwb_iosacl [-vV] [-d wdir] [-4] [-6] [-i] -f data_file.xml object_name

DESCRIPTION

       fwb_iosacl  is  firewall policy compiler component of Firewall Builder (see fwbuilder(1)). Compiler reads
       objects definitions and firewall description from the data file specified with "-f" option and  generates
       resultant  Cisco  IOS  ACL configuration file. The configuration is written to the file with the name the
       same as the name of the firewall object, plus extension ".fw". Compiler generates extended  access  lists
       for  Cisco  routers  running  IOS v12.x using "ip access-list <name>" syntax. Compiler also generates "ip
       access-group" commands to assign access lists to interfaces. Generated ACL configuration can be  uploaded
       to the router manually or using built-in installer in the fwbuilder(1) GUI.

       The  data  file and the name of the firewall objects must be specified on the command line. Other command
       line parameters are optional.

OPTIONS

       -4     Generate iptables script for IPv4 part of the policy. If any rules of the firewall refer  to  IPv6
              addresses, compiler will skip these rules.  Options "-4" and "-6" are exclusive. If neither option
              is used, compiler tries to generate both parts of the script, although generation of the IPv6 part
              is  controlled  by  the  option  "Enable  IPv6  support"  in the "IPv6" tab of the firewall object
              advanced settings dialog.  This option is off by default.

       -6     Generate iptables script for IPv6 part of the policy. If any rules of the firewall refer  to  IPv6
              addresses, compiler will skip these rules.

       -f FILE
              Specify the name of the data file to be processed.

       -d wdir
              Specify  working  directory.  Compiler  creates file with ACL configuration in this directory.  If
              this parameter is missing, then generated ACL 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
