<title>Description</title>
<para>The shorewall6-lite utility is used to control the Shoreline
Firewall 6 (Shorewall6) Lite.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Options</title>
<para>The <option>trace</option> and <option>debug</option> options are
used for debugging. See <ulink
url="http://www.shorewall.net/starting_and_stopping.htm#Trace">http://www.shorewall.net/starting_and_stopping.htm#Trace</ulink>.</para>
<para>The nolock <option>option</option> prevents the command from
attempting to acquire the Shorewall6 Lite lockfile. It is useful if you
need to include <command>shorewall6-lite</command> commands in the
<filename>started</filename> extension script.</para>
<para>The <emphasis>options</emphasis> control the amount of output that
the command produces. They consist of a sequence of the letters <emphasis
role="bold">v</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">q</emphasis>. If the
options are omitted, the amount of output is determined by the setting of
the VERBOSITY parameter in <ulink
url="shorewall6.conf.html">shorewall6.conf</ulink>(5). Each <emphasis
role="bold">v</emphasis> adds one to the effective verbosity and each
<emphasis role="bold">q</emphasis> subtracts one from the effective
VERBOSITY. Anternately, <emphasis role="bold">v</emphasis> may be followed
immediately with one of -1,0,1,2 to specify a specify VERBOSITY. There may
be no white space between <emphasis role="bold">v</emphasis> and the
VERBOSITY.</para>
<para>The <emphasis>options</emphasis> may also include the letter
<option>t</option> which causes all progress messages to be
timestamped.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Commands</title>
<para>The available commands are listed below.</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">allow</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Re-enables receipt of packets from hosts previously
blacklisted by a <emphasis role="bold">drop</emphasis>, <emphasis
role="bold">logdrop</emphasis>, <emphasis
role="bold">reject</emphasis>, or <emphasis
role="bold">logreject</emphasis> command.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">clear</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Clear will remove all rules and chains installed by Shorewall6
Lite. The firewall is then wide open and unprotected. Existing
connections are untouched. Clear is often used to see if the
firewall is causing connection problems.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">drop</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Causes traffic from the listed <emphasis>address</emphasis>es
to be silently dropped.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">dump</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Produces a verbose report about the firewall configuration for
the purpose of problem analysis.</para>
<para>The <emphasis role="bold">-x</emphasis> option causes actual
packet and byte counts to be displayed. Without that option, these
counts are abbreviated. The <emphasis role="bold">-m</emphasis>
option causes any MAC addresses included in Shorewall6 Lite log
messages to be displayed.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">forget</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Deletes /var/lib/shorewall6-lite/<emphasis>filenam</emphasis>e

<emphasis>filename</emphasis> is given then the file specified by
RESTOREFILE in <ulink
url="shorewall6-lite.conf.html">shorewall6-lite.conf</ulink>(5) is
assumed.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">help</emphasis></term>

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>

url="shorewall6-lite.conf.html">shorewall6-lite.conf</ulink>(5) and
produces an audible alarm when new Shorewall6 Lite messages are
logged. The <emphasis role="bold">-m</emphasis> option causes the
MAC address of each packet source to be displayed if that
information is available. The
<replaceable>refresh-interval</replaceable> specifies the time in
seconds between screen refreshes. You can enter a negative number by
preceding the number with "--" (e.g., <command>shorewall6-lite
logwatch -- -30</command>). In this case, when a packet count
changes, you will be prompted to hit any key to resume screen
refreshes.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">logreject</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Causes traffic from the listed <emphasis>address</emphasis>es

<term><emphasis role="bold">restore</emphasis></term>
<listitem>

connections are maintained. The <emphasis>filename</emphasis> names
a restore file in /var/lib/shorewall6-lite created using <emphasis
role="bold">shorewall6-lite save</emphasis>; if no
<emphasis>filename</emphasis> is given then Shorewall6 Lite will be
restored from the file specified by the RESTOREFILE option in <ulink
url="shorewall6-lite.conf.html">shorewall6-lite.conf</ulink>(5).</para>
