DESCRIPTION

INTERFACE

Methods

new()

Returns a new GeNUScreen::Config object.

my $thiscfg = GeNUScreen::Config->new();
read_config($filename)

Reads the configuration either from a file that was exported from the GeNUScreen firewall via the web interface or from the config.hdf obtained via SSH or Console.

After calling read_config() the object contains only the configuration read from the last file. Any configuration that was held before is lost.

$thiscfg->read_config($thisfile);
get_keys()

Returns a list of all keys currently in the configuration.

my @keys = $thiscfg->get_keys();
get_value($key)

Returns the value for the given key.

foreach ($thiscfg->get_keys()) {
  printf "%s = %s\n", $_, $thiscfg->get_value($_);
}
diff($thatcfg)

Takes another GeNUScreen::Config object as argument and returns a GeNUScreen::Config::Diff object holding the differences between this and that object.

my $cfgdiff = $thiscfg->diff($thatcfg);

print "Configurations are identical\n" if ($cfgdiff->is_empty());

foreach ($cfgdiff->get_keys()) {
  print "%s\n", $_;
  print " this = %s\n", $cfgdiff_get_this_value($_);
  print " that = %s\n", $cfgdiff_get_that_value($_);
}
