Command Line Interface


Overview

The UDMG Command Line Interface (CLI) is implemented by the waarp-gateway client.

In addition to what is supported by the original version of the waarp-gateway v0.6.2 client, the following commands have been added for UDMG:

  • sb_pgp: PGP Key Management
  • sb_audit: Audit Management

Authentication

Only Local User Account authentication is supported for the CLI. LDAP authentication is only used for the Graphical User Interface.

See Waarp Gateway Client Connection Settings on how to give the credentials.

Note

The connection settings are already configured on the UDMG terminal environment.

PGP Key Management

PGP key records can be stored in the UDMG database and retrieved with the CLI or the REST API to be used by scripts or by Universal Controller tasks without having to keep them in a local keyring.

Both private and public PGP keys can be stored in the database with AES encryption.

waarp-gateway sb_pgp add

Adds a new pgp key with the given parameters.
