To keep local modifications of these variables across reboots, see .Xr sysctl.conf 5 . .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm ipsecadm utility sets up security associations in the kernel to be used with .Xr ipsec 4 . It can be used to specify the encryption and authentication algorithms and key material for the network layer security provided by IPsec. The possible commands are: .Bl -tag -width new_esp .It new esp Setup a Security Association (SA) which uses the new esp transforms. A SA consists of the destination address, a Security Parameter Index (SPI) and a security protocol. Encryption and authentication algorithms can be applied. This is the default mode. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl src , .Fl proxy , .Fl spi , .Fl enc , .Fl srcid_type , .Fl srcid , .Fl dstid_type , .Fl dstid , .Fl auth , .Fl authkey , .Fl authkeyfile , .Fl forcetunnel , .Fl key , and .Fl keyfile . .It old esp Setup a SA which uses the old esp transforms. Only encryption algorithms can be applied. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl src , .Fl proxy , .Fl spi , .Fl enc , .Fl srcid_type , .Fl srcid , .Fl dstid_type , .Fl dstid , .Fl halfiv , .Fl forcetunnel , .Fl key , and .Fl keyfile . .It new ah Setup a SA which uses the new ah transforms. Authentication will be done with HMAC using the specified hash algorithm. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl src , .Fl proxy , .Fl spi , .Fl srcid_type , .Fl srcid , .Fl dstid_type , .Fl dstid , .Fl forcetunnel , .Fl auth , .Fl key , and .Fl keyfile . .It old ah Setup a SA which uses the old ah transforms. Simple keyed hashes will be used for authentication. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl src , .Fl proxy , .Fl spi , .Fl srcid_type , .Fl srcid , .Fl dstid_type , .Fl dstid , .Fl forcetunnel , .Fl auth , .Fl key , and .Fl keyfile . .It group Group two SAs together, such that whenever the first one is applied, the second one will be applied as well (SA bundle). Arbitrarily long SA bundles can thus be created. Note that the last SA in the bundle is the one that is applied last. Thus, if an ESP and an AH SA are bundled together (in that order), then the resulting packet will have an AH header, followed by an ESP header, followed by the encrypted payload. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl spi , .Fl proto , .Fl dst2 , .Fl spi2 , and .Fl proto2 . .It ip4 Setup an SA which uses the IP-in-IP encapsulation protocol. This mode offers no security services by itself, but can be used to route other (experimental or otherwise) protocols over an IP network. The SPI value is not used for anything other than referencing the information, and does not appear on the wire. Unlike other setups, like new esp, there is no necessary setup in the receiving side. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl src , and .Fl spi . .It delspi The specified SA will be deleted. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl spi , and .Fl proto . .It flow Create a flow determining what security parameters a packet should have (input or output). Allowed modifiers are: .Fl src , .Fl dst , .Fl proto , .Fl addr , .Fl transport , .Fl sport , .Fl dport , .Fl delete , .Fl in , .Fl out , .Fl srcid , .Fl dstid , .Fl srcid_type , .Fl dstid_type , .Fl acquire , .Fl require , .Fl dontacq , .Fl use , .Fl bypass , .Fl permit and .Fl deny . The .Xr netstat 1 command shows all specified flows. Flows are directional, and the .Fl in and .Fl out modifiers are used to specify the direction. By default, flows are assumed to apply to outgoing packets. The kernel will attempt to find an appropriate Security Association from those already present (an SA that matches the destination address, if set, and the security protocol). If the destination address is set to all zeroes (0.0.0.0) or left unspecified, the destination address from the packet will be used to locate an SA (the source address is used for incoming flows). For incoming flows, the destination address (if specified) should point to the expected source of the SA (the remote SA peer). If no such SA exists, key management daemons will be used to generate them if .Fl acquire or .Fl require were used. If .Fl acquire was used, traffic will be allowed out (or in) and IPsec will be used when the relevant SAs have been established. If .Fl require was used, traffic will not be allowed in or out until it is protected by IPsec. If .Fl dontacq was used, traffic will not be allowed in or out until it is protected by IPsec, but key management will not be asked to provide such an SA. The .Fl proto argument (by default set to .Nm esp ) will be used to determine what type of SA should be established. A .Nm bypass or .Nm permit flow is used to specify a flow for which IPsec processing will be bypassed, i.e packets will/need not be processed by any SAs. For .Nm bypass or .Nm permit flows, additional modifiers are restricted to: .Fl addr , .Fl transport , .Fl sport , .Fl dport , .Fl in , .Fl out , and .Fl delete . A .Nm deny flow is used to specify classes of packets that must be dropped (either on output or input) without further processing. .Nm deny takes the same additional modifiers as .Nm bypass . .It flush Flush SAs from kernel. This includes flushing any flows and routing entries associated with the SAs. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl ah , .Fl esp , .Fl oldah , .Fl oldesp , .Fl ip4 , and .Fl ipcomp . Default action is to flush all types of security associations from the kernel. .It ipcomp Setup an IP Compression Association (IPCA) which will use the IPcomp transforms. Just like an SA, an IPCA consists of the destination address, a Compression Parameter Index (CPI) and a protocol (which is fixed to IPcomp). Compression algorithms are applied. Allowed modifiers are: .Fl dst , .Fl src , .Fl cpi , .Fl comp , and .Fl forcetunnel . To create an IPsec SA using compression, an IPCA and an SA must first be created. After this a IPCA/SA bundle must be created using the .Nm group keyword. The IPCA must be applied first. .El .Pp If no command is given .Xr ipsecadm 1 defaults to new esp mode. .Pp The modifiers have the following meanings: .Bl -tag -width xxxx -offset indent .It Fl src The source IP address for the SA. This is necessary for incoming SAs to avoid source address spoofing between mutually suspicious hosts that have established SAs with us. For outgoing SAs, this field is used to fill in the source address when doing tunneling. .It Fl dst The destination IP address for the SA. .It Fl dst2 The second IP address used by .Nm group . .It Fl proxy This IP address, if provided, is checked against the inner IP address when doing tunneling to a firewall, to prevent source spoofing attacks. It is strongly recommended that this option is provided when applicable. It is applicable in a scenario when host A is using IPsec to communicate with firewall B, and through that to host C. In that case, the proxy address for the incoming SA should be C. This option is not necessary for outgoing SAs. .It Fl spi The Security Parameter Index (SPI), given as a hexadecimal number. .It Fl spi2 The second SPI used by .Nm group . .It Fl cpi The Compression Parameter Index (CPI), given as a 16 bit hexadecimal number. .It Fl tunnel This option has been deprecated. The arguments are ignored, and it otherwise has the same effect as the .Nm forcetunnel option. .It Fl newpadding This option has been deprecated. .It Fl forcetunnel Force IP-inside-IP encapsulation before ESP or AH processing is performed for outgoing packets. The source/destination addresses of the outgoing IP packet will be those provided in the .Nm src and .Nm dst options. Notice that the IPsec stack will perform IP-inside-IP encapsulation when deemed necessary, even if this flag has not been set. .It Fl enc The encryption algorithm to be used with the SA. Possible values are: .Bl -tag -width skipjack .It Nm des This is available for both old and new esp. Notice that hardware crackers for DES can be (and have been) built for US$250,000 (in 1998). Use DES for encryption of critical information at your own risk. We suggest using 3DES or AES instead. DES support is kept for interoperability (with old implementations) purposes only. See .Xr des_cipher 3 . .It Nm 3des This is available for both old and new esp. It is considered more secure than straight DES, since it uses larger keys. .It Nm aes Rijndael encryption is available only in new esp. .It Nm blf Blowfish encryption is available only in new esp. See .Xr blf_key 3 . .It Nm cast CAST encryption is available only in new esp. .It Nm skipjack SKIPJACK encryption is available only in new esp. This algorithm designed by the NSA and is faster than 3DES. However, since it was designed by the NSA it is a poor choice. .El .Pp .It Fl auth The authentication algorithm to be used with the SA. Possible values are: .Nm md5 and .Nm sha1 for both old and new ah and also new esp. Also .Nm rmd160 for both new ah and esp. .It Fl comp The compression algorithm to be used with the IPCA. The only possible value currently is: .Nm deflate . .It Fl key The secret symmetric key used for encryption and authentication. The size for .Nm des and .Nm 3des is fixed to 8 and 24 respectively. For other ciphers like .Nm cast , .Nm aes , or .Nm blf the key length can vary (depending on the algorithm). The .Nm key should be given in hexadecimal digits. The .Nm key should be chosen in random (ideally, using some true-random source like coin flipping). It is very important that the key is not guessable. One practical way of generating 160-bit (20-byte) keys is as follows: .Bd -literal $ openssl rand 20 | hexdump -e '20/1 "%02x"' .Ed .It Fl keyfile Read the key from a file. May be used instead of the .Fl key flag, and has the same syntax considerations. .It Fl authkey The secret key material used for authentication if additional authentication in new esp mode is required. For old or new ah the key material for authentication is passed with the .Nm key option. The .Nm key should be given in hexadecimal digits. The .Nm key should be chosen in random (ideally, using some true-random source like coin flipping). It is very important that the key is not guessable. One practical way of generating 160-bit (20-byte) keys is as follows: .Bd -literal $ openssl rand 20 | hexdump -e '20/1 "%02x"' .Ed .It Fl authkeyfile Read the authkey from a file. May be used instead of the .Fl authkey flag, and has the same syntax considerations. .It Fl iv This option has been deprecated. The argument is ignored. When applicable, it has the same behaviour as the .Nm halfiv option. .It Fl halfiv This option causes use of a 4 byte IV in old ESP (as opposed to 8 bytes). It may only be used with old ESP. .It Fl proto The security protocol needed by .Nm delspi or .Nm flow , to uniquely specify the SA. The default value is 50 which means .Nm IPPROTO_ESP . Other accepted values are 51 .Nm ( IPPROTO_AH ) , and 4 .Nm ( IPPROTO_IP ) . One can also specify the symbolic names "esp", "ah", and "ip4", case insensitive. .It Fl proto2 The second security protocol used by .Nm group . It defaults to .Nm IPPROTO_AH , otherwise takes the same values as .Fl proto . .It Fl addr The source address, source network mask, destination address and destination network mask against which packets need to match to use the specified Security Association. Alternatively, addresses and masks can be specified as .Dq Li source/prefixlen destination/prefixlen . All addresses must be of the same address family (IPv4 or IPv6). .It Fl transport The protocol number which packets need to match to use the specified Security Association. By default the protocol number is not used for matching. Instead of a number, a valid protocol name that appears in .Xr protocols 5 can be used. .It Fl sport The source port which packets have to match for the flow. By default the source port is not used for matching. Instead of a number, a valid service name that appears in .Xr services 5 can be used. .It Fl dport The destination port which packets have to match for the flow. By default the source port is not used for matching. Instead of a number, a valid service name that appears in .Xr services 5 can be used. .It Fl srcid For flow, used to specify what local identity key management should use when negotiating the SAs. If left unspecified, the source address of the flow is used (see the discussion on .Nm flow above, with regard to source address). .It Fl dstid For flow, used to specify what the remote identity key management should expect is. If left unspecified, the destination address of the flow is used (see the discussion on .Nm flow above, with regard to destination address). .It Fl srcid_type For flow, used to specify the type of identity given by .Fl srcid . Valid values are .Nm prefix , .Nm fqdn , and .Nm ufqdn . The .Nm prefix type implies an IPv4 or IPv6 address followed by a forward slash character and a decimal number indicating the number of important bits in the address (equivalent to a netmask, in IPv4 terms). Key management then has to pick a local identity that falls within the address space indicated. The .Nm fqdn and .Nm ufqdn types are DNS-style host names and mailbox-format user addresses, respectively, and are especially useful for mobile user scenarios. Note that no validity checking on the identities is done. .It Fl dstid_type See .Fl srcid_type . .It Fl delete Instead of creating a flow, an existing flow is deleted. .It Fl bypass For .Nm flow , create or delete a .Nm bypass flow. Packets matching this flow will not be processed by IPsec. .It Fl permit Same as .Fl bypass . .It Fl deny For .Nm flow , create or delete a .Nm deny flow. Packets matching this flow will be dropped. .It Fl use For .Nm flow , specify that packets matching this flow should try to use IPsec if possible. .It Fl acquire For .Nm flow , specify that packets matching this flow should try to use IPsec and establish SAs dynamically if possible, but permit unencrypted traffic. .It Fl require For .Nm flow , specify that packets matching this flow must use IPsec, and establish SAs dynamically as needed. If no SAs are established, traffic is not allowed through. .It Fl dontacq For .Nm flow , specify that packets matching this flow must use IPsec. If such SAs are not present, simply drop the packets. Such a policy may be used to demand peers to establish SAs before they can communicate with us, without going through the burden of initiating the SA ourselves (thus allowing for some denial of service attacks). This flow type is particularly suitable for security gateways. .It Fl in For .Nm flow , specify that it should be used to match incoming packets only. .It Fl out For .Nm flow , specify that it should be used to match outgoing packets only. .It Fl ah For .Nm flush , only flush SAs of type ah. .It Fl esp For .Nm flush , only flush SAs of type esp. .It Fl oldah For .Nm flush , only flush SAs of type old ah. .It Fl oldesp For .Nm flush , only flush SAs of type old esp. .It Fl ip4 For .Nm flush , only flush SAs of type ip4. .El .Sh EXAMPLES Setup a SA which uses new esp with 3des encryption and HMAC-SHA1 authentication: .Bd -literal # ipsecadm new esp -enc 3des -auth sha1 -spi 100a -dst 169.20.12.2 \e\ -src 169.20.12.3 \e\ -key 638063806380638063806380638063806380638063806380 \e\ -authkey 1234123412341234123412341234123412341234 .Ed .Pp Setup a SA for authentication with old ah only: .Bd -literal # ipsecadm old ah -auth md5 -spi 10f2 -dst 169.20.12.2 -src 169.20.12.3 \e\ -key 12341234deadbeef .Ed .Pp Setup a flow requiring use of AH: .Bd -literal # ipsecadm flow -dst 169.20.12.2 -proto ah \e\ -addr 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 -out -require .Ed .Pp Setup an inbound SA: .Bd -literal # ipsecadm new esp -enc blf -auth md5 -spi 1002 -dst 169.20.12.3 \e\ -src 169.20.12.2 \e\ -key abadbeef15deadbeefabadbeef15deadbeefabadbeef15deadbeef \e\ -authkey 12349876432167890192837465098273 .Ed .Pp Setup an ingress flow on for the inbound SA: .Bd -literal # ipsecadm flow -addr 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 \e\ -dst 169.20.12.2 -proto esp -in -require .Ed .Pp Setup a bypass flow: .Bd -literal # ipsecadm flow -bypass -out \e\ -addr 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 .Ed .Pp Delete all esp SAs and their flows and routing information: .Bd -literal # ipsecadm flush -esp .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr netstat 1 , .Xr enc 4 , .Xr ipsec 4 , .Xr protocols 5 , .Xr services 5 , .Xr sysctl.conf 5 , .Xr isakmpd 8 .Xr vpn 8
