preshared secrets for IKE/IPsec authentication

Commands

One exception is:

ipsec_rsasigkey(8)

generate RSA keys for use in Pluto authentication

• These keys are for authentication only. They are not secure for encryption.
• RSA Data Security hold a US patent on the RSA algorithm, valid until September 20, 2000. Using this utility in the US before then may be illegal because it would violate that patent.
• The utility uses random(4) as a source of random numbers. This may block for some time if there is not enough activity on the machine to provide the required entropy. You may want to give it some bogus activity such as random mouse movements or some command such as du /usr > dev/null &.

The following commands are fairly likely to be used, if only for testing and status checks:

ipsec(8)

invoke IPSEC utilities

ipsec_setup(8)

control IPSEC subsystem

ipsec_auto(8)

control automatically-keyed IPSEC connections

ipsec_manual(8)

take manually-keyed IPSEC connections up and down

ipsec_ranbits(8)

generate random bits in ASCII form

ipsec_look(8)

show minimal debugging information

ipsec_barf(8)

spew out collected IPSEC debugging information

ipsec_eroute(8)

manipulate IPSEC extended routing tables

ipsec_klipsdebug(8)

set Klips (kernel IPSEC support) debug features and level

ipsec_pluto(8)

IPsec IKE keying daemon

ipsec_spi(8)

manage IPSEC Security Associations

ipsec_spigrp(8)

group/ungroup IPSEC Security Associations

ipsec_tncfg(8)

associate IPSEC virtual interface with real interface

ipsec_whack(8)

control interface for IPSEC keying daemon
