  OPNsense CLI - interact with OPNsense via the CLI

  API key + secret:

  You need a valid API key and secret to interact with the API. Open your
  browser and go to System->Access->Users and generate or use an existing
  Api Key. 

  See: https://docs.opnsense.org/development/how-tos/api.html#creating-keys.

  SSL verify / CA:

  If you use ssl verification (--ssl-verify), make sure to specify a valid
  ca with --ca <path_to_bundle>.

  To download the default self-signed cert, open the OPNsense Web Gui and go to 
  System->Trust->Certificates. Search for the Name: "Web GUI SSL certificate" and 
  press the "export user cert" button. 

  If you use a ca signed certificate, go to System->Trust->Authorities and 
  press the "export CA cert" button to download the ca.

  Save the cert or the ca as ~/.opn-cli/ca.pem.

  Configuration:

  You can set the required options as environment variables. See --help
  "[env var: [...]"

  Or use a config file passed with -c option.

  The configuration cascade from highest precedence to lowest:

  1. argument & options

  2. environment variables

  3. config file
