-should be ready for further configuration which is described in this chapter.
-
-Host Information
-----------------
-
-This section describes the system's host information and how to configure them,
-it covers the following topics:
-
-* Host name
-* Domain
-* IP address
-* Default gateway
-* Aliases
-
-Host Name
-^^^^^^^^^
-
-A hostname is the label (name) assigned to a network device (a host) on a
-network and is used to distinguish one device from another on specific networks
-or over the internet.
-
-Set a system host name:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system host-name <hostname>
-
-.. note:: Only letters, numbers and hyphens are allowed.
-
-Show host name:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- show system host-name
-
-Delete host name:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- delete system host-name <hostname>
-
-Example: Set system hostname to 'RT01':
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system host-name RT01
- commit
- show system host-name
- host-name RT01
-
-Domain Name
-^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-A domainname is the label (name) assigned to a computer network and is thus
-unique!
-
-Set the system's domain:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system domain-name <domain>
-
-.. note:: Only letters, numbers, hyphens and periods are allowed.
-
-Show domain:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- show system domain-name
-
-Remove domain name:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system delete domain-name <domain>
-
-Example: Set system domain to example.com:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system domain-name example.com
- commit
- show system domain-name
- domain-name example.com
-
-Static host mappings
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-How to assign IPs to interfaces is described in chapter
-:ref:`interfaces-addresses`. This section shows how to statically map a system
-IP to its host name for local (meaning on this VyOS instance) DNS resolution:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system static-host-mapping host-name <hostname> inet <IP address>
-
-Show static mapping:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- show system static-host-mapping
-
-Example: Create a static mapping between the system's hostname `RT01` and
-IP address `10.20.30.41`:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system static-host-mapping host-name RT01 inet 10.20.30.41
- commit
- show system static-host-mapping
- host-name RT01 {
- inet 10.20.30.41
- }
-
-Aliases
-*******
-
-One or more system aliases (static mappings) can be defined:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system static-host-mapping host-name <hostname> alias <alias>
-
-Show aliases:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- show system static-mapping
-
-Delete alias:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- delete system static-host-mapping host-name <hostname> alias <alias>
-
-Example: Set alias `router1` for system with hostname `RT01`:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system static-host-mapping host-name RT01 alias router1
- commit
- show system static-host-mapping
- host-name RT01 {
- alias router1
- inet 10.20.30.41
- }
-
-Default Gateway/Route
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-In the past (VyOS 1.1.8) used a gateway-address configured in the system tree
-(`set system gateway-address <IP address>`) this is no longer supported and
-existing configurations are migrated to the new CLI commands.
-
-It is replaced by inserting a static route into the routing table using:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set protocols static route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop <gateway ip>
-
-Delete default route fomr the system
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- delete protocols static route 0.0.0.0/0
-
-Show default route:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- vyos@vyos$ show ip route 0.0.0.0
- Routing entry for 0.0.0.0/0
- Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0, best
- Last update 3d00h23m ago
- * 172.16.34.6, via eth1
-
-System Users
-------------
-
-VyOS supports two levels of users: admin and operator.
-
-The operator level restricts a user to operational commands and prevents
-changes to system configuration. This is useful for gathering information
-about the state of the system (dhcp leases, vpn connections, routing tables,
-etc...) and for manipulating state of the system, such as resetting
-connections, clearing counters and bringing up and taking down connection
-oriented interfaces.
-
-The admin level has all of the capabilities of the operator level, plus the
-ability to change system configuration. The admin level also enables a user
-to use the sudo command, which essentially means the user has root access to
-the system.
-
-Creating Login User Accounts
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Create user account `jsmith`, with `admin` level access and the password
-`mypassword`
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system login user jsmith full-name "Johan Smith"
- set system login user jsmith authentication plaintext-password mypassword
- set system login user jsmith level admin
-
-The command:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- show system login
-
-will show the contents of :code:`system login` configuration node:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- user jsmith {
- authentication {
- encrypted-password $6$0OQHjuQ8M$AYXVn7jufdfqPrSk4/XXsDBw99JBtNsETkQKDgVLptXogHA2bU9BWlvViOFPBoFxIi.iqjqrvsQdQ./cfiiPT.
- plaintext-password ""
- }
- full-name "Johan Smith"
- level admin
- }
-
-SSH Access using Shared Public Keys
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The following command will load the public key `dev.pub` for user `jsmith`
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- loadkey jsmith dev.pub
-
-.. note:: This requires uploading the `dev.pub` public key to the VyOS router
- first. As an alternative you can also load the SSH public key directly
- from a remote system:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- loadkey jsmith scp://devuser@dev001.vyos.net/home/devuser/.ssh/dev.pub
-
-Syslog
-------
-
-Per default VyOSs has minimal syslog logging enabled which is stored and
-rotated locally. Errors will be always logged to a local file, which includes
-`local7` error messages, emergency messages will be sent to the console, too.
-
-To configure syslog, you need to switch into configuration mode.
-
-Logging to serial console
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The below would log all messages to :code:`/dev/console`.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system syslog console facility all level all
-
-Use the **[tab]** function to display all facilities and levels which can
-be configured.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- vyos@vyos# set system syslog console facility <TAB>
- Possible completions:
- > all All facilities excluding "mark"
- > auth Authentication and authorization
- > authpriv Non-system authorization
- > cron Cron daemon
- > daemon System daemons
- > kern Kernel
- > lpr Line printer spooler
- > mail Mail subsystem
- > mark Timestamp
- > news USENET subsystem
- > protocols depricated will be set to local7
- > security depricated will be set to auth
- > syslog Authentication and authorization
- > user Application processes
- > uucp UUCP subsystem
- > local0 Local facility 0
- > local1 Local facility 1
- > local2 Local facility 2
- > local3 Local facility 3
- > local4 Local facility 4
- > local5 Local facility 5
- > local6 Local facility 6
- > local7 Local facility 7
-
- vyos@vyos# set system syslog console facility all level <TAB>
- Possible completions:
- emerg Emergency messages
- alert Urgent messages
- crit Critical messages
- err Error messages
- warning Warning messages
- notice Messages for further investigation
- info Informational messages
- debug Debug messages
- all Log everything
-
-
-Logging to a custom file
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Logging to a custom file, rotation size and the number of rotate files left
-on the system can be configured.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system syslog file <FILENAME> facility <FACILITY> level <LEVEL>
- set system syslog file <FILENAME> archive file <NUMBER OF FILES>
- set system syslog file FILENAME archive size <FILESIZE>
-
-The very same setting can be applied to the global configuration, to modify
-the defaults for the global logging.
-
-Logging to a remote host
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Logging to a remote host leaves the local logging configuration intact, it
-can be configured in parallel. You can log ro multiple hosts at the same time,
-using either TCP or UDP. The default is sending the messages via UDP.
-
-**UDP**
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system syslog host 10.1.1.1 facility all level all
- <optional>
- set system syslog host 10.1.1.1 facility all protocol udp
-
-
-**TCP**
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system syslog host 10.1.1.2 facility all level all
- set system syslog host 10.1.1.2 facility all protocol tcp
-
-Logging to a local user account
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-If logging to a local useraccount is configured, all defined log messages are
-display on the console if the local user is logged in, if the user is not
-logged in, no messages are being displayed.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- set system syslog user <LOCAL_USERNAME> facility <FACILITY> level <LEVEL>
