The command "pve-firewall status" is used to check the status of the firewall on a Proxmox Virtual Environment (PVE) server.
Proxmox Virtual Environment is an open-source virtualization platform that allows the creation and management of virtual machines and containers. It includes built-in firewall capabilities to enhance the security of the virtualization environment.
When you run the command "pve-firewall status", it will display the current status of the firewall on the PVE server. The output will typically provide information on whether the firewall is enabled or disabled, along with any active firewall rules.
This command is useful for checking the firewall status to ensure that the appropriate security measures are in place to protect the PVE server and the virtual machines or containers running on it.
