NAME

ipsec tncfg - associate IPSEC virtual interface with real interface

SYNOPSIS

ipsec tncfg --attach --virtual virtual --real real

ipsec tncfg --detach --virtual virtual

ipsec tncfg --clear

ipsec tncfg --version

ipsec tncfg --help

DESCRIPTION

Tncfg attaches/detaches IPSEC virtual interfaces to/from real interfaces, through which packets will be forwarded once processed by IPSEC.

The --attach form attaches the virtual interface to the real one. The --detach form detaches the virtual interface from whichever real interface it is attached to. The --clear form clears all the virtual interfaces from whichever real interfaces they were attached to.

Virtual interfaces typically have names like ipsec0, while real interfaces typically have names like eth0 or ppp0.

EXAMPLES

ipsec tncfg --attach --virtual ipsec0 --physical eth0: attaches the ipsec0 virtual device to the eth0 physical device.
