SYNOPSIS
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
``virtnwfilterd`` [*OPTION*]...
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
The ``virtnwfilterd`` program is a server side daemon component of the libvirt
|
||||
virtualization management system.
|
||||
|
||||
It is one of a collection of modular daemons that replace functionality
|
||||
previously provided by the monolithic ``libvirtd`` daemon.
|
||||
|
||||
This daemon runs on virtualization hosts to provide management for network
|
||||
filters.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``virtnwfilterd`` daemon only listens for requests on a local Unix domain
|
||||
socket. Remote off-host access and backwards compatibility with legacy
|
||||
clients expecting ``libvirtd`` is provided by the ``virtproxy`` daemon.
|
||||
|
||||
Restarting ``virtnwfilterd`` does not interrupt running guests. Guests continue to
|
||||
operate and changes in their state will generally be picked up automatically
|
||||
during startup. None the less it is recommended to avoid restarting with
|
||||
running guests whenever practical.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
SYSTEM SOCKET ACTIVATION
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
The ``virtnwfilterd`` daemon is capable of starting in two modes.
|
||||
|
||||
In the traditional mode, it will create and listen on UNIX sockets itself.
|
||||
|
||||
In socket activation mode, it will rely on systemd to create and listen
|
||||
on the UNIX sockets and pass them as pre-opened file descriptors. In this
|
||||
mode most of the socket related config options in
|
||||
``/etc/libvirt/virtnwfilterd.conf`` will no longer have any effect.
|
||||
|
||||
Socket activation mode is generally the default when running on a host
|
||||
OS that uses systemd. To revert to the traditional mode, all the socket
|
||||
unit files must be masked:
|
||||
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
$ systemctl mask virtnwfilterd.socket virtnwfilterd-ro.socket \
|
||||
virtnwfilterd-admin.socket
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
OPTIONS
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
``-h``, ``--help``
|
||||
|
||||
Display command line help usage then exit.
|
||||
|
||||
``-d``, ``--daemon``
|
||||
|
||||
Run as a daemon & write PID file.
|
||||
|
||||
``-f``, ``--config *FILE*``
|
||||
|
||||
Use this configuration file, overriding the default value.
|
||||
|
||||
``-p``, ``--pid-file *FILE*``
|
||||
|
||||
Use this name for the PID file, overriding the default value.
|
||||
|
||||
``-t``, ``--timeout *SECONDS*``
|
||||
|
||||
Exit after timeout period (in seconds), provided there are neither any client
|
||||
connections nor any running domains.
|
||||
|
||||
``-v``, ``--verbose``
|
||||
|
||||
Enable output of verbose messages.
|
||||
|
||||
``--version``
|
||||
|
||||
Display version information then exit.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
SIGNALS
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
On receipt of ``SIGHUP`` ``virtnwfilterd`` will reload its configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
FILES
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
When run as *root*
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* ``@SYSCONFDIR@/libvirt/virtnwfilterd.conf``
|
||||
|
||||
The default configuration file used by ``virtnwfilterd``, unless overridden on the
|
||||
command line using the ``-f`` | ``--config`` option.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``@RUNSTATEDIR@/libvirt/virtnwfilterd-sock``
|
||||
* ``@RUNSTATEDIR@/libvirt/virtnwfilterd-sock-ro``
|
||||
* ``@RUNSTATEDIR@/libvirt/virtnwfilterd-admin-sock``
|
||||
|
||||
The sockets ``virtnwfilterd`` will use.
|
||||
|
||||
The TLS **Server** private key ``virtnwfilterd`` will use.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``@RUNSTATEDIR@/virtnwfilterd.pid``
|
||||
|
||||
The PID file to use, unless overridden by the ``-p`` | ``--pid-file`` option.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
When run as *non-root*
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/libvirt/virtnwfilterd.conf``
|
||||
|
||||
The default configuration file used by ``virtnwfilterd``, unless overridden on the
|
||||
command line using the ``-f``|``--config`` option.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/libvirt/virtnwfilterd-sock``
|
||||
* ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/libvirt/virtnwfilterd-admin-sock``
|
||||
|
||||
The sockets ``virtnwfilterd`` will use.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/libvirt/virtnwfilterd.pid``
|
||||
|
||||
The PID file to use, unless overridden by the ``-p``|``--pid-file`` option.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`` is not set in your environment, ``virtnwfilterd`` will use
|
||||
``$HOME/.config``
|
||||
|
||||
If ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`` is not set in your environment, ``virtnwfilterd`` will use
|
||||
``$HOME/.cache``
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
EXAMPLES
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
To retrieve the version of ``virtnwfilterd``:
|
||||
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
# virtnwfilterd --version
|
||||
virtnwfilterd (libvirt) @VERSION@
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
# virtnwfilterd -d
|
||||
# ls -la @RUNSTATEDIR@/virtnwfilterd.pid
