The OPNsense backend consists of several components (see Architecture for a full stack description).
|
|
|
|
Our core backend service (configd) is implemented using `Python <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python>`__. and provides two main features:
|
|
|
|
- Service interaction (using configd actions)
|
|
- Generation of configuration data (using templates)
|
|
|
|
Because we need integration between (legacy) components, we provide additional plugin options for the following components:
|
|
|
|
- Services (the services status)
|
|
- Syslog (define syslog targets)
|
|
- Interface (register interfaces, firewall use etc.)
|
|
- Service configuration (legacy service configuration, new style uses configd templates)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Services which need to be executed at system startup can use rc(8) or our syshook system.
|
|
Our :doc:`overview <backend/overview>` document contains a practical write up to explain the various phases of
|
|
operation and hooks available in them.
