Acld: Manage acl's on a router
From BroWiki
acld is a daemon that manages access control lists (acls) on a router. It's designed to support a number of different routers through the use of easily written router specific expect scripts.
To reduce the amount of time necessary to install host block acls on the router, acld keeps a persistent connection open.
Hosts can be blocked or unblocked using a simple script that communicates to acld via a localhost port. Applications (e.g. bro) can keep a persistent connection to acld open to further reduce overhead. acld can also communicate with clients using the Broccoli protocol.
The distribution includes a Bro policy file:
- acld.bro - block and unblock hosts using Broccoli
The current version is available for download from ftp.ee.lbl.gov:
