This feature is supported by fwknopd similarly to other daemons upon
receipt of a HUP signal. So, the work flow would be:
- have a running fwknopd instance
- edit the access.conf file or the fwknopd.conf file
- send the the fwknopd process a HUP signal via "kill -HUP <pid>".
- the running fwknopd instance will free up the existing configs from
memory, and re-initialize
I do see that there isn't test suite support for this feature though, so
I'll add that to make sure there aren't any bugs. If you try this and see a
problem, please let me know.
Thanks,
