Administration Tools for Trusted Extensions

Administration on a system that is configured with Trusted Extensions uses many of the same tools that are available in the Oracle Solaris OS. Trusted Extensions offers security-enhanced tools as well. Administration tools are available only to roles in a role workspace.

Within a role workspace, you can access commands, applications, and scripts that are trusted. The following table summarizes these administrative tools.

Table 7-1 Trusted Extensions Administrative Tools

`/usr/sbin/txzonemgr`	Creates the Labeled Zone Manager GUI for creating and configuring labeled zones, including networking. Command-line options enable automatic creation of user-named zones.	See Creating Labeled Zones and the `txzonemgr`(1M) man page. `txzonemgr` is a `zenity` (1) script.
Device Manager	Used to administer the label ranges of devices, and to allocate and deallocate devices.	See Device Manager and Handling Devices in Trusted Extensions (Task Map).
Label Builder	Is also a user tool. Appears when a program requires you to choose a label.	For an example, see How to Modify a User's Label Range.
