NAME

pf::enforcement - taking security decisions

DESCRIPTION

pf::enforcement provides the means to re-evaluate the security posture of a node and trigger the appropriate required changes.

DEVELOPER NOTES

Notice that this module doesn't export all its subs like our other modules do. This is an attempt to shift our paradigm towards calling with package names and avoid the double naming.

Remove this note when it will be no longer relevant. ;)

SUBROUTINES

reevaluate_access

This will check a node's status and perform changes to access control if necessary.

Triggered by pfcmd.

_vlan_reevaluation

Sends local SNMP traps to pfsetvlan if we should reevaluate the VLAN of a node.

_should_we_reassign_vlan

Returns true or false whether or not we should request vlan adjustment

Evaluates node's VLAN through pf::vlan's fetchVlanForNode (which can be redefined by pf::vlan::custom)
