f5fpc: Show the current VPN status.
$ sudo f5fpc --info
try on your machine

The command sudo f5fpc --info is invoking the f5fpc binary executable and passing the --info flag as an argument.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

  • sudo: This is a command used in Unix-like operating systems to elevate the user's privileges temporarily, usually to gain administrative or root access. It allows the command to be executed with administrative permissions.

  • f5fpc: This is the name of the binary executable being executed. It is likely associated with F5 Networks' FirePass Controller, which is a remote access SSL VPN solution.

  • --info: This is a command-line option or flag passed to the f5fpc program. It instructs the program to display information or details. It is possible that executing f5fpc with the --info flag will provide information about the F5 FirePass VPN client, such as its version, configuration, or other details.

By running sudo f5fpc --info with administrative privileges, you are requesting information related to the F5 VPN client.
