|
.Fn ipsec_set_policy "char *policy" "int len"
|
|

.Fn ipsec_dump_policy "char *buf" "char *delim"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ipsec_set_policy
|
|
function generates an IPsec policy specification structure,
|
|
.Li struct sadb_x_policy
|
|
and/or
|
|
.Li struct sadb_x_ipsecrequest
|
|
from a human-readable policy specification.
|
|
The policy specification must be given as a C string,
|
|
passed in the
|
|
.Fa policy
|
|
argument and the length of the string, given as
|
|
.Fa len .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ipsec_set_policy
|
|
function returns pointer to a buffer which contains a properly formed
|
|
IPsec policy specification structure.
|
|
The buffer is dynamically allocated, and must be freed by using the
|
|
.Xr free 3
|
|
library function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ipsec_get_policylen
|
|
function will returns the of the buffer which is needed when passing
|
|
the specification structure to the
|
|
.Xr setsockopt 2
|
|
system call.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ipsec_dump_policy
|
|
function converts an IPsec policy structure into a human readable form.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa buf
|
|
argument points to an IPsec policy structure,
|
|
.Li struct sadb_x_policy .
|
|
.Fa delim
|
|
is a delimiter string, which is usually a blank character.
|
|
If you set
|
|
.Fa delim
|
|
to
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
a single white space is assumed.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ipsec_dump_policy
|
|
function returns a pointer to dynamically allocated string.
|
|
It is the caller's responsibility to free the returned pointer using the
|
|
.Xr free 3
|
|
library call.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A
|
|
.Fa policy
|
|
is given in the following way:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "discard"
|
|
.It Ar direction Li discard
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar direction
|
|
must be
|
|
.Li in
|
|
or
|
|
.Li out
|
|
and
|
|
specifies which direction the policy needs to be applied, either on
|
|
inbound or outbound packets.
|
|
When the
|
|
.Li discard
|
|
policy is selected, packets will be dropped if they match the policy.
|
|
.It Ar direction Li entrust
|
|
.Li entrust
|
|
means to consult the security policy database
|
|
(SPD)
|
|
in the kernel, as controlled by
|
|
.Xr setkey 8 .
|
|
.It Ar direction Li bypass
|
|
A direction of
|
|
.Li bypass
|
|
indicates that IPsec processing should not occur and that the
|
|
packet will be transmitted in clear. The bypass option is only
|
|
available to privileged sockets.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ar direction
|
|
.Li ipsec
|
|
.Ar request ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|
A direction of
|
|
.Li ipsec
|
|
means that matching packets are processed by IPsec.
|
|
.Li ipsec
|
|
can be followed by one or more
|
|
.Ar request
|
|
string, which is formatted as:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "discard"
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ar protocol
|
|
.Li /
|
|
.Ar mode
|
|
.Li /
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
.Li -
|
|
.Ar dst
|
|
.Op Ar /level
|
|
.Xc
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar protocol
|
|
is one of:
|
|
.Li ah ,
|
|
.Li esp
|
|
or
|
|
.Li ipcomp
|
|
indicating Authentication Header, Encapsulating Security Protocol or
|
|
IP Compression protocol is used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar mode
|
|
is either
|
|
.Li transport
|
|
or
|
|
.Li tunnel
|
|
the meanings of both modes are described in
|
|
.Xr ipsec 4 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar dst
|
|
specify the IP address, either v4 or v6, of the source and destination systems.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
always stands for the
|
|
.Dq sending node
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar dst
|
|
always stands for the
|
|
.Dq receiving node .
|
|
When
|
|
.Ar direction
|
|
is
|
|
.Li in ,
|
|
.Ar dst
|
|
is this local node
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
is the remote node or peer.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar mode
|
|
is
|
|
.Li transport ,
|
|
both
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar dst
|
|
can be omitted.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar level
|
|
must be set to one of the following:
|
|
.Li default , use , require
|
|
or
|
|
.Li unique .
|
|
.Li default
|
|
means that the kernel should consult the default security policies as
|
|
defined by a set of
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8 ,
|
|
variables. The relevant
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variables are described in
|
|
.Xr ipsec 4 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When
|
|
.Li use
|
|
is selected a relevant security association
|
|
(SA)
|
|
can be used when available but is not necessary.
|
|
If the SA is available then packets will be handled by IPsec,
|
|
i.e. encrypted and/or authenticated but if an SA is not available then
|
|
packets will be transmitted in the clear. The
|
|
.Li use
|
|
option is not recommended because it allows for accidental
|
|
mis-configurations where encrypted or authenticated link becomes
|
|
unencrypted or unauthenticated, the
|
|
.Li require
|
|
keyword is recommended instead of
|
|
.Li use
|
|
where possible.
|
|
Using the
|
|
.Li require
|
|
keyword means that a relevant SA is required,
|
|
and that the kernel must perform IPsec processing on all matching
|
|
packets.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Li unique
|
|
keyword has the same effect as
|
|
.Li require ,
|
|
but adds the restriction that the SA for outbound traffic is used
|
|
only for this policy.
|
|
You may need the identifier in order to relate the policy and the SA
|
|
when you define the SA by manual keying using
|
|
.Xr setkey 8 .
|
|
Put the decimal number as the identifier after the
|
|
.Li unique
|
|
keyword in this way:
|
|
.Li unique : number ,
|
|
where
|
|
.Li number
|
|
must be between 1 and 32767.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Ar request
|
|
string is kept unambiguous,
|
|
.Ar level
|
|
and the slash prior to
|
|
.Ar level
|
|
can be omitted but you are encouraged to specify them explicitly
|
|
to avoid unintended behaviors.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar level
|
|
is omitted, it will be interpreted as
|
|
.Li default .
|
|
.El
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that there is a difference between the specification allowed here
|
|
and in
|
|
.Xr setkey 8 .
|
|
When specifying security policies with
|
|
.Xr setkey 8 ,
|
|
neither entrust nor bypass are used.
|
|
Refer to
|
|
.Xr setkey 8
|
|
for details.
