IPSCAN(8)

NAME
ipscan - user interface to the IPFilter content scanning

SYNOPSIS
ipscan [ -dlnrsv ] [ ] -f <filename>

DESCRIPTION
ipscan opens the filename given (treating "-" as stdin) and parses the file to build up a content scanning configuration to load into the kernel. Currently only the first 16 bytes of a connection can be compared.

OPTIONS

-d  Toggle debugging of processing the configuration file.

-l  Show the list of currently configured content scanning entries.

-n  This flag (no-change) prevents ipscan from actually making any ioctl calls or doing anything which would alter the currently running kernel.

-r  Remove commands from kernel configuration as they are read from the configuration file rather than adding new ones.

-s  Retrieve and display content scanning statistics

-v  Turn verbose mode on.

FILES
/dev/ipscan /etc/ipscan.conf
