Name

xmlconf.py — remote configuration daemon for aftr

Synopsis

xmlconf.py [-l listening-addr] [-p listening-port] [-r remote-addr] [-c config-file] [-v]

OPTIONS

-l listening-addr

This specifies a local address on which to listen. If not specified, it listens on all local addresses.

-p listening-port

This specifies a local port on which to listen. Defaults to port 4148 for HTTP transport, or port 4146 for socket transport.

-r remote-addr

This specifies a single address that the server will listen to. The server should only get configuration requests from the provisioning system, at a known address, so this is a simple form of access control. Use of this option is not required, but it is recommended.

-c config-file

This specifies the name and location of the aftr configuration file. For obvious reasons, this option MUST specify the same file that is used to configure the running aftr daemon. Default is ./aftr.conf.

-v

This enables run-time debugging messages. It should not be used in production, but it can help to debug or monitor interactions between xmlconf.py and the aftr daemon.
