axigen.cfg Definitions

Limits:

• maximum attribute name length: 64

• maximum attribute value length: 8192

• all time attributes (timeouts and time intervals) are specified in seconds

• all data sizes are specified in KB

Syntax:

• empty lines are ignored

• a hash character ("#") introduces a comment to the end of the line

• any block inside /* ... */ is treated as comment

• values cannot be continued across new lines

• values containing spaces or "#" must be quoted using double quotes

• double quotes can be escaped using a blackslash ("\")

• sets of values are declared inside round parentheses ()

• an object or sets of objects are declared inside brackets {}

• attribute names are case-insensitive

• an attribute definition is of form: attributeName = attributeValue

Attribute values:

• simple value with the following base types:

  • UINT - unsigned integer

  • STRING - case insensitive string, may be quoted using double quotes

  • CS_STRING - case sensitive string, may be quoted using double quotes

  • IP - a IPv4 address in decimal numbers-and-dots format, i.e.: 127.0.0.1

  • IP_SET - a set for IPv4 addresses specified in one of the following ways:

    1. IP interval 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.20

    2. IP address/IP mask 10.0.0.1/255.0.0.0

    3. IP address/IP mask size 10.0.0.1/8

  • IP_PORT - a IPv4 address in decimal numbers-and-dots format followed by a ":" char and a decimal port number, i.e.: 127.0.0.1:25

  • CHOICE - a single STRING from a specified set of STRINGs, i.e.: "yes" from ("yes" "no") set

  • CHOICE-SET - means a subset of STRINGs from the specified set of STRINGs; the subset must be specified between round parentheses ()

• set of simple values, a set of base type values except CHOICE and CHOICE-SET, specified between round parentheses ()

• objects, an orderless enumeration of attribute definitions inclosed by brackets {}

• objects set, a set of objects inclosed by round parentheses ()

Some attributes have DEFAULT values (specified below) which are used when the respective attributes are missing from configuration file. If a REQUIRED attribute is omitted from an object this will make the server to ignore the respective object.
