Viewing and editing settings for encrypted connections scan

You can use special network traffic scan settings management commands to:

  • Output the current values of network traffic scan settings to the console or to a configuration file. You can use this file to edit the settings.
  • Manage network traffic scan settings using the configuration file. You can get a configuration file that you can edit using the display the network traffic scan settings output command.
  • Edit individual settings using command line options in the format <setting name>=<setting value>. You can get the current values of the settings using the command to output network traffic scan settings.

To output the current network traffic scan settings to the console, execute the following command:

kess-control --get-net-settings [--json]

where --json is specified to output the settings in JSON format. If the --json option is not specified, the settings are output in the INI format.

To output the current network traffic scan settings to a file, run the following command:

kess-control --get-net-settings --file <path to configuration file> [--json]

where:

  • --file <configuration file path> is the path to the configuration file to which you want to save the network traffic scan settings. If you specify the name of a file without specifying its path, the file will be created in the current directory. If a file with the specified name already exists in the specified path, it will be overwritten. If the specified directory cannot be found on the disk, file will not be created.
  • --json is specified to output the settings in JSON format. If the --json option is not specified, the settings are output in the INI format.

To manage network scan settings using a configuration file:

  1. Output the general application settings to a configuration file, as described above.
  2. Edit the values of the necessary parameters in the file and save the changes.
  3. Execute the command:

    kess-control --set-net-settings --file <path to configuration file> [--json]

    where:

    • --file <configuration file path> is the full path to the configuration file with network traffic scan settings.
    • --json is specified to import the settings from the configuration file into the application in JSON format. If the --json option is not specified, the application attempts to import from an INI file. If the import fails, an error is displayed.

All network traffic scan settings configured in the file are imported into the application.

To edit network traffic scan settings on the command line, run the following command:

kess-control --set-net-settings <setting name>=<setting value> [<setting name>=<setting value>]

where <setting name>=<setting value> is the name and value of one of the network traffic scan settings.

The values of the specified settings are modified.
