NAME

Farly::Rule::Expander - Expands configuration firewall rules

DESCRIPTION

Farly::Rule::Expander converts a firewall configuration rule set into a expanded rule set. The expanded firewall rule set is an Farly::Object::List<Farly::Object> containing all firewall rules.

An expanded rule set has no references to other firewall objects. The expanded firewall rule is for specific packet to firewall rule matching.

METHODS

new( $list )

  $rule_expander = Farly::Rule::Expander->new( <Farly::Object::List> );

expand_all()

Returns a Farly::Object::List<Farly::Object> container of all expanded firewall rule entries in the current Farly firewall model.

  $expanded_ruleset = $rule_expander->expand_all();

expand( $rule<Farly::Object>, $result<Farly::Object::List>)

Returns the expanded version of the given firewall rule in the provided result container.

  $expanded_rule = $rule_expander->expand( $rule, $result );
