# LANforge Perl Scripts #
|
||||
This is a collection of scripts and scripting libraries designed to work
|
||||
with LANforge systems.
|
||||
with LANforge systems. On your LANforge system, these scripts are
|
||||
typically installed into `/home/lanforge/scripts`. The `LANforge/` sub directory holds
|
||||
the perl modules (`.pm` files) that are common to the perl scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
The LANforge/ directory holds the perl modules.
|
||||
|
||||
The lf_*.pl scripts are typically more complete and general purpose
|
||||
### Commonly Used ###
|
||||
The `lf_*.pl` scripts are typically more complete and general purpose
|
||||
scripts, though some are ancient and very specific. In particular,
|
||||
these scripts are more modern and may be a good place to start:
|
||||
lf_portmod.pl lf_firemod.pl lf_icemod.pl lf_attenmod.pl.
|
||||
|
||||
This script shows how one might call these other scripts:
|
||||
lf_wifi_rest_example.pl
|
||||
| Name | Purpose |

||||
|------------------|-----------|
|
||||
| `lf_portmod.pl` | Query and update physical and virtual ports |
|

||||
|
||||
