VASE-CLI — Command Line Interface for Managing the SSG Platform

VASE-CLI is a command shell for managing VAS Experts products and associated third-party products.
The shell consists of the modules main, fdpi, bird, kea, frad. More details can be found in the section Modules.

Method 1. Run the script:

source <(curl https://vasexperts.ru/install/vase-cli-rpm_install.sh)

Method 2. Add the VASE repositories and execute:

yum install vase-cli

Updates are performed in the same ways as installation.

To create and manage users, VASE-CLI must be run under the root user using the command vase-cli.

By default, the following user groups are created:

• vase-cli-w — group with write permissions (users can edit files).
• vase-cli-r — group with read-only permissions (users can only view files in the system).
• tacacs0..tacacs15 — groups with write permissions for connecting authorization and accounting in TACACS+. These groups are used if TACACS+ is enabled — more details.

adduser <username>
usermod -aG vase-cli-w <username>
usermod -s /usr/bin/vase-cli-shell <username>

adduser <username>
usermod -aG vase-cli-r <username>
usermod -s /usr/bin/vase-cli-shell <username>

All settings are available in the file /etc/vase-cli/.env
Possible options are available in the file /etc/vase-cli/sample.env

There are also user settings available within VASE-CLI in the main module, managed through the config command. For a hint, type help.

VASE-CLI has integration with the TACACS+ authorization server. If desired, you can connect authorization and accounting through TACACS+ in /etc/vase-cli/.env.
An example can be seen in /etc/vase-cli/sample.env.
An example of TACACS server configuration is found in /etc/vase-cli/tacacs_server.sample.conf.
