Using ndsctl
############
A openNDS install includes ndsctl, a separate application which provides some control over a running openNDS process by communicating with it over a unix socket. Some command line options:
* To print to stdout some information about your openNDS process:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl status``
* To print to stdout the list of clients in human readable format:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl clients``
* To print to stdout the list of clients and trusted devices in json format:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl json``
* To print to stdout the details of a particular client in json format (This is particularly useful if called from a FAS or Binauth script.):
``/usr/bin/ndsctl json [mac|ip|token]``
* To block a MAC address, when the MAC mechanism is block:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl block MAC``
* To unblock a MAC address, when the MAC mechanism is block:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl unblock MAC``
* To allow a MAC address, when the MAC mechanism is allow:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl allow MAC``
* To unallow a MAC address, when the MAC mechanism is allow:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl unallow MAC``
* To deauthenticate a currently authenticated user given their IP or MAC
address:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl deauth IP|MAC``
* To set the verbosity of logged messages to n:
``/usr/bin/ndsctl debuglevel n``
* debuglevel 0 : Silent (only LOG_ERR and LOG_EMERG messages will be seen, otherwise there will be no logging.)
* debuglevel 1 : LOG_ERR, LOG_EMERG, LOG_WARNING and LOG_NOTICE (this is the default level).
* debuglevel 2 : debuglevel 1 + LOG_INFO
* debuglevel 3 : debuglevel 2 + LOG_DEBUG
All other levels are undefined and will result in debug level 3 being set.
For more options, run ndsctl -h. (Note that if you want the effect of ndsctl commands to to persist across openNDS restarts, you have to edit the configuration file.)
