echo "add: add <interface>[:<host-list>] ... <zone>
Adds a list of hosts or subnets to a dynamic zone usually used with VPN's.
shorewall add interface:host-list ... zone - Adds the specified interface
(and host-list if included) to the specified zone.
A host-list is a comma-separated list whose elements are:
A host or network address
The name of a bridge port
The name of a bridge port followed by a colon (":") and a host or
network address.
Example:
shorewall add ipsec0:192.0.2.24 vpn1 -- adds the address 192.0.2.24
from interface ipsec0 to the zone vpn1.
See also \"help host\""
;;
address|host)
echo "<$1>:
May be either a host IP address such as 192.168.1.4 or a network address in
CIDR format like 192.168.1.0/24. If your kernel and iptables contain iprange
match support then IP address ranges of the form <low address>-<high address>
are also permitted. If your kernel and iptables contain ipset match support
then you may specify the name of an ipset prefaced by "+". The name of the
ipsec may be optionally followed by a number of levels of ipset bindings
(1 - 6) that are to be followed"
;;
allow)
echo "allow: allow <address> ...
Re-enables receipt of packets from hosts previously blacklisted
by a drop or reject command.
Shorewall allow, drop, rejct and save implement dynamic blacklisting.
See also \"help address\""
;;
check)
echo "check: check [ <configuration-directory> ]
Performs a cursory validation of the zones, interfaces, hosts,
rules, policy, masq, blacklist and proxyarp files. Use this if you are
unsure of any edits you have made to the shorewall configuration. See the
try command examples for a recommended way to make changes."
;;
clear)
echo "clear: clear
Clear will remove all rules and chains installed by Shoreline.
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."
;;
debug)
echo "debug: debug
If you include the keyword debug as the first argument to any
of these commands:
start|stop|restart|reset|clear|refresh|check|add|delete
then a shell trace of the command is produced. For example:
shorewall debug start 2> /tmp/trace
The above command would trace the 'start' command and
place the trace information in the file /tmp/trace.
The word 'trace' is a synonym for 'debug'."
;;
delete)
echo "delete: delete <interface>[:<host-list>] ... <zone>
Deletes a list of hosts or networks from a dynamic zone usually used with VPN's.
shorewall delete interface[:host-list] ... zone - Deletes the specified
interfaces (and host list if included) from the specified zone.
A host-list is a comma-separated list whose elements are:
A host or network address
The name of a bridge port
The name of a bridge port followed by a colon (":") and a host or
network address.
Example:
shorewall delete ipsec0:192.0.2.24 vpn1 -- deletes the address
192.0.2.24 from interface ipsec0 from zone vpn1
See also \"help host\""
;;
drop)
echo "$1: $1 <address> ...
Causes packets from the specified <address> to be ignored
Shorewall allow, drop, rejct and save implement dynamic blacklisting.
See also \"help address\""
;;
dump)
echo "dump: dump
shorewall [-x] dump

;;
forget)
echo "forget: forget [ <file name> ]
Deletes /var/lib/shorewall/<file name>. If no <file name> is given then
the file specified by RESTOREFILE in shorewall.conf is removed.

in the current /var/log/messages file."
;;
ipcalc)
echo "ipcalc: ipcalc [ address mask | address/vlsm ]
Ipcalc displays the network address, broadcast address,
network in CIDR notation and netmask corresponding to the input[s]."
;;

If \"-q\" is specified, less detain is displayed making it easier to spot warnings"
;;
safe-restart)

;;
start)

Start shorewall. Existing connections through shorewall managed
interfaces are untouched. New connections will be allowed only
if they are allowed by the firewall rules or policies.
