strongSwan

To get a quick look to a running strongSwan setup, we have built a small demo setup which runs without installation or configuration. It is based on a UML kernel and two preconfigured OpenWRT images. It should run out of the box on a x86 Linux system.

=== Getting started === {{{
wget http://download.strongswan.org/uml/strongswan-openwrt-demo.tar.bz2
}}} * Extract the tarball {{{
tar jxvf strongswan-openwrt-demo.tar.bz2; cd strongswan-openwrt-demo
}}} * start the two hosts as root {{{
sudo ./start
}}} * Run the pre-configured connection on both hosts {{{
ipsec start --nofork
}}}

• Download the tarball containing the kernel and the images:

=== Other configurations ===
You can try other setups which only involve two hosts, have a look at the [http://www.strongswan.org/uml/testresults4/ available configurations].

If you wan't to run complexer scenarios, you may try to set up the complete [http://www.strongswan.org/uml/index.htm UML test environement].
