Variables for Administrative Commands

Administrative commands are built on a hierarchical structure of parents-children. A command applied on a

parent is propagated to all of its children.

There are two tables used to define administrative commands to groups:

 groupAdmin: A group may be the unit itself (gateway) or other instances. There are no

instances other than the gateway defined at this moment.

 ifAdmin: This table applies to each interface of the unit.

groupAdmin Table

The groupAdmin table sends administrative commands at the highest instance in a hierarchy (such as the

gateway).

ifAdmin Table

The ifAdmin table is similar to the groupAdmin table, except that it applies to interfaces.
