Changes for Version 4.2.1
| 1 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | h1. Version 4.2.1 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 3 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * Support for "Hash and URL" encoded certificate payloads has been implemented |
| 4 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | in the IKEv2 daemon charon. Using the "certuribase" option of a CA section |
| 5 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | allows to assign a base URL to all certificates issued by the specified CA. |
| 6 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | The final URL is then built by concatenating that base and the hex encoded |
| 7 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | SHA1 hash of the DER encoded certificate. Note that this feature is disabled |
| 8 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | by default and must be enabled using the option "charon.hash_and_url". |
| 9 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 10 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * The IKEv2 daemon charon now supports the "uniqueids" option to close multiple |
| 11 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | IKE_SAs with the same peer. The option value "keep" prefers existing |
| 12 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | connection setups over new ones, where the value "replace" replaces existing |
| 13 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | connections. |
| 14 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 15 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * The crypto factory in libstrongswan additionaly supports random number |
| 16 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | generators, plugins may provide other sources of randomness. The default |
| 17 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | plugin reads raw random data from /dev/(u)random. |
| 18 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 19 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * Extended the credential framework by a caching option to allow plugins |
| 20 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | persistent caching of fetched credentials. The "cachecrl" option has been |
| 21 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | re-implemented. |
| 22 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 23 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * The new trustchain verification introduced in 4.2.0 has been parallelized. |
| 24 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | Threads fetching CRL or OCSP information no longer block other threads. |
| 25 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 26 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * A new IKEv2 configuration attribute framework has been introduced allowing |
| 27 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | plugins to provide virtual IP addresses, and in the future, other |
| 28 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | configuration attribute services (e.g. DNS/WINS servers). |
| 29 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 30 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * The stroke plugin has been extended to provide virtual IP addresses from |
| 31 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | a pool defined in ipsec.conf. The "rightsourceip" parameter now accepts |
| 32 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | address pools in CIDR notation (e.g. 10.1.1.0/24). The parameter also accepts |
| 33 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | the value "%poolname", where "poolname" identifies a pool provided by a |
| 34 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | separate plugin. |
| 35 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 36 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * Fixed compilation on uClibc and a couple of other minor bugs. |
| 37 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 38 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * Set DPD defaults in ipsec starter to dpd_delay=30s and dpd_timeout=150s. |
| 39 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | |
| 40 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | * The IKEv1 pluto daemon now supports the ESP encryption algorithm CAMELLIA |
| 41 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | with key lengths of 128, 192, and 256 bits, as well as the authentication |
| 42 | 3 | Tobias Brunner | algorithm AES_XCBC_MAC. Configuration example: esp=camellia192-aesxcbc. |
