strongSwan

= ipsec.conf =

strongSwan's ''/etc/ipsec.conf'' configuration file consists of three different section types:

 * [wiki:ConfigSetupSection config setup] defines general configuration parameters

 * [wiki:ConnSection conn <name>] defines a connection

 * [wiki:CaSection ca <name>] defines a certification authority

There can be only one [wiki:ConfigSetupSection config setup] section but

an unlimited number of [wiki:ConnSection conn] and [wiki:CaSection ca] sections.

All parameters belonging to a section must be indented by at least one space or tab

character. The rest of the line after a '#' character is treated as a comment.

Comments within a section must also be indented.
