Table 10-1 SunScreen Command Summary
UNIX Command |
Description |
---|---|
ssadm |
Primary command line tool for SunScreen administration. ssadm subcommands perform various operations, such as editing and activating a SunScreen configuration and examining the status of a Screen. |
ss_client |
Provide communication between a SunScreen Administration Station and a Screen that is running an earlier SunScreen firewall product release. ss_client is provided only for the purpose of remotely administering such products using the SunScreen system as a remote Administration Station. |
The commands used for administering SunScreen SKIP are meant to be run only on a pure Administration Station, not on a Screen. They can be found in "Using the Command-Line Interface" in SunScreen SKIP User's Guide, Release 1.5.1.
