Additional configuration files (.csv)

As of SNS version 3.9.0, additional configuration operations may be performed through one or several CSV files. These files make it possible to build a firewall cluster or change a value in a firewall configuration file.

Files with .csv extensions have to be in UTF-8 format. All .csv files found on the USB key will be run during the installation sequence.

General structure of additional .csv configuration files

  • Each line must contain an operation,
  • Each line corresponding to an operation is defined according to the following nomenclature:

    "serial | any" ,"operation", ["parameter 1", etc.]

    • serial: indicates that the operation must be applied to the firewall associated with the serial number entered,
    • any: indicates that the operation must be applied regardless of the firewall involved,
    • All fields must be separated by commas,
    • Operations and parameters are explained below.

  • Lines of comments beginning with the "#" character can be inserted.
