shorewall-params - Man Page
Shorewall parameters file
Synopsis
/etc/shorewall[6]/params
Description
Assign any shell variables that you need in this file. The file is always processed by /bin/sh so the full range of shell capabilities may be used.
It is suggested that variable names begin with an upper case letter to distinguish them from variables used internally within the Shorewall programs
The following variable names must be avoided. Those in bold font must be avoided in all Shorewall versions; those in regular font must be avoided in versions prior to 4.4.8.
