NAME

       text,boolean,permissive,dontaudit,ibpkey,ibendport}
                       ...  positional arguments:
       import Import local customizations
       export Output local customizations
       login Manage login mappings between linux users  and  SELinux  confined
       users

       user)
       port Manage network port type definitions
       interface Manage network interface type definitions
       module Manage SELinux policy modules
       node Manage network node type definitions
       fcontext Manage file context mapping definitions
       boolean Manage booleans to selectively enable functionality
       permissive Manage process type enforcement mode

       ibpkey Manage infiniband pkey type definitions
       ibendport Manage infiniband end port type definitions

DESCRIPTION
       semanage is used to configure certain elements of SELinux policy  with-
       out  requiring  modification  to  or recompilation from policy sources.
       This includes the mapping from Linux usernames to SELinux user  identi-
       ties  (which  controls  the  initial security context assigned to Linux
       users when they login and bounds their authorized role set) as well  as
       security context mappings for various kinds of objects, such as network
       ports, interfaces, infiniband pkeys and endports, and nodes (hosts)  as
       well  as  the  file context mapping. See the EXAMPLES section below for
       some examples of common usage.  Note that the  semanage  login  command
       deals  with  the  mapping from Linux usernames (logins) to SELinux user
       identities, while the semanage user command deals with the mapping from
       SELinux  user  identities to authorized role sets.  In most cases, only
       the former mapping needs to be adjusted by the administrator; the  lat-
       ter  is  principally  defined  by  the base policy and usually does not
       require modification.
