See the .Sx FILES section below and .Sx PKI AND CERTIFICATE AUTHORITY COMMANDS in .Xr ikectl 8 for more information about creating and maintaining the public key infrastructure. .Pp The options are as follows: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Fl 6 Disable automatic blocking of IPv6 traffic. By default, .Nm blocks any IPv6 traffic unless a flow for this address family has been negotiated. This option is used to prevent VPN traffic leakages on dual stack hosts. .It Fl D Ar macro Ns = Ns Ar value Define .Ar macro to be set to .Ar value on the command line. Overrides the definition of .Ar macro in the configuration file. .It Fl d Do not daemonize and log to .Em stderr . .It Fl f Ar file Use .Ar file as the configuration file, instead of the default .Pa /etc/iked.conf . .It Fl n Configtest mode. Only check the configuration file for validity. .It Fl S Start .Nm in passive mode. See the .Ic set passive option in .Xr iked.conf 5 for more information. .It Fl T Disable NAT-Traversal and do not propose NAT-Traversal support to the peers. .It Fl t Enforce NAT-Traversal and only listen to NAT-Traversal messages. This option is only recommended for testing; the default is to negotiate NAT-Traversal with the peers. .It Fl v Produce more verbose output. .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width "/etc/iked/private/XXX" -compact .It Pa /etc/iked.conf The default .Nm configuration file. .It Pa /etc/iked/ca/ The directory where CA certificates are kept. .It Pa /etc/iked/certs/ The directory where IKE certificates are kept, both the local certificate(s) and those of the peers, if a choice to have them kept permanently has been made. .It Pa /etc/iked/crls/ The directory where CRLs are kept. .It Pa /etc/iked/private/ The directory where local private keys used for public key authentication are kept. The file .Pa local.key is used to store the local private key. .It Pa /etc/iked/pubkeys/ The directory in which trusted public keys are kept. The keys must be named in the fashion described above. .It Pa /var/run/iked.sock The default .Nm control socket. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr iked.conf 5 , .Xr ikectl 8 , .Xr isakmpd 8 .Sh STANDARDS .Rs .%A C.

It should not yet be used in production networks.
