15Appendix
The additional HTTPS interfaces nph-vpn.cgi, nph-diag.cgi, nph-status.cgi and nph-action.cgi are implemented as CGI (Common Gateway Interface) scripts.
For more information on using the CGI interfaces, see mGuard Application Notes (UM EN MGUARD APPNOTES), available at phoenixcontact.net/products or help.mguard.com. |
When executing the CGI scrips nph-vpn.cgi, nph-diag.cgi, nph-status.cgi and nph-action.cgi, only the following characters may be used in user names, passwords, and other user-defined names (for example, the name of a VPN connection): –Letters: A - Z, a - z –Digits: 0 - 9 –Special characters: - . _ ~
If other special characters, such as "space" or the "question mark", are used, they must be encoded accordingly (URL encoding). |
Using the command line tool wget is not supported. Instead, you can use the command line tool curl (parameters and options differ!). Examples: curl --insecure "https://admin:mGuard@192.168.1.1/nph-vpn.cgi?name=Athen&cmd=up" curl --insecure "https://admin:mGuard@192.168.1.1/nph-action.cgi?action=tools%2Ftcpdump-start&interface=eth1" The option --insecure (curl) ensures that the HTTPS certificate on the mGuard does not undergo any further checking. |
