proposals = mkCommaSepListParam ["default"] ''
+
A proposal is a set of algorithms. For non-AEAD algorithms, this includes
+
for IKE an encryption algorithm, an integrity algorithm, a pseudo random

function and a Diffie-Hellman group. For AEAD algorithms, instead of
+
encryption and integrity algorithms, a combined algorithm is used.

In IKEv2, multiple algorithms of the same kind can be specified in a

single proposal, from which one gets selected. In IKEv1, only one
+
algorithm per kind is allowed per proposal, more algorithms get implicitly
+
stripped. Use multiple proposals to offer different algorithms

Algorithm keywords get separated using dashes. Multiple proposals may be

If the default of yes is used, Mode Config works in pull mode, where the

Push mode is currently supported for IKEv1, but not in IKEv2. It is used

the Codepoint to set, as defined in RFC 2474.
+
encap = mkYesNoParam no ''
+
To enforce UDP encapsulation of ESP packets, the IKE daemon can fake the
+
NAT detection payloads. This makes the peer believe that NAT takes place
+
on the path, forcing it to encapsulate ESP packets in UDP.
+
Usually this is not required, but it can help to work around connectivity
+
issues with too restrictive intermediary firewalls.

mobike = mkYesNoParam yes ''

Enables MOBIKE on IKEv2 connections. MOBIKE is enabled by default on IKEv2

connections, and allows mobility of clients and multi-homing on servers by

migrating active IPsec tunnels.
+
Usually keeping MOBIKE enabled is unproblematic, as it is not used if the
+
peer does not indicate support for it. However, due to the design of

MOBIKE, IKEv2 always floats to port 4500 starting from the second

keyingtries = mkIntParam 1 ''
+
Number of retransmission sequences to perform during initial

sequence with the default value of <literal>1</literal>, additional

sequences may be started according to the configured value. A value of

establishes or fails with a permanent error.

unique = mkEnumParam ["no" "never" "keep" "replace"] "no" ''
+
Connection uniqueness policy to enforce. To avoid multiple connections

from the same user, a uniqueness policy can be enforced.
+
The value <literal>never</literal> does never enforce such a policy, even
+
if a peer included INITIAL_CONTACT notification messages,

whereas <literal>no</literal> replaces existing connections for the same

identity if a new one has the INITIAL_CONTACT notify.

<literal>keep</literal> rejects new connection attempts if the same user
+
already has an active connection,

<literal>replace</literal> deletes any existing connection if a new one

for the same user gets established.
+
To compare connections for uniqueness, the remote IKE identity is used. If
+
EAP or XAuth authentication is involved, the EAP-Identity or XAuth
+
username is used to enforce the uniqueness policy instead.
+
On initiators this setting specifies whether an INITIAL_CONTACT notify is
+
sent during IKE_AUTH if no existing connection is found with the remote
+
peer (determined by the identities of the first authentication
+
round). Only if set to keep or replace will the client send a notify.
+
reauth_time = mkDurationParam "0s" ''
+
Time to schedule IKE reauthentication. IKE reauthentication recreates the
+
IKE/ISAKMP SA from scratch and re-evaluates the credentials. In asymmetric

configurations (with EAP or configuration payloads) it might not be
+
possible to actively reauthenticate as responder. The IKEv2

IKE rekeying refreshes key material using a Diffie-Hellman exchange, but

If a DH group is specified, CHILD_SA/Quick Mode rekeying and initial

any DH group specified here will only apply when the CHILD_SA is later

proposal mismatch might, therefore, not immediately be noticed when the

special value <literal>opaque</literal> for RFC 4301 OPAQUE
+
selectors. Port ranges may be specified as well, none of the kernel
+
backends currently support port ranges, though.
+
When IKEv1 is used only the first selector is interpreted, except if the
+
Cisco Unity extension plugin is used. This is due to a limitation of the
+
IKEv1 protocol, which only allows a single pair of selectors per
+
CHILD_SA. So to tunnel traffic matched by several pairs of selectors when
+
using IKEv1 several children (CHILD_SAs) have to be defined that cover
+
the selectors. The IKE daemon uses traffic selector narrowing for IKEv1,
+
the same way it is standardized and implemented for IKEv2. However, this
+
may lead to problems with other implementations. To avoid that, configure
+
identical selectors in such scenarios.
+
remote_ts = mkCommaSepListParam ["dynamic"] ''
+
List of remote selectors to include in CHILD_SA. See
+
<option>local_ts</option> for a description of the selector syntax.

rekey_time = mkDurationParam "1h" ''
+
Time to schedule CHILD_SA rekeying. CHILD_SA rekeying refreshes key
+
material, optionally using a Diffie-Hellman exchange if a group is
+
specified in the proposal. To avoid rekey collisions initiated by both
+
ends simultaneously, a value in the range of <option>rand_time</option>
+
gets subtracted to form the effective soft lifetime.
+
By default CHILD_SA rekeying is scheduled every hour, minus
+
<option>rand_time</option>.
+
life_time = mkOptionalDurationParam ''
+
Maximum lifetime before CHILD_SA gets closed. Usually this hard lifetime
+
is never reached, because the CHILD_SA gets rekeyed before. If that fails

for whatever reason, this limit closes the CHILD_SA. The default is 10%
+
more than the <option>rekey_time</option>.
+
rand_time = mkOptionalDurationParam ''
+
Time range from which to choose a random value to subtract from

rekey_bytes = mkIntParam 0 ''
+
Number of bytes processed before initiating CHILD_SA rekeying. CHILD_SA

Volume based CHILD_SA rekeying is disabled by default.
+
life_bytes = mkOptionalIntParam ''
+
Maximum bytes processed before CHILD_SA gets closed. Usually this hard
+
volume limit is never reached, because the CHILD_SA gets rekeyed

Number of packets processed before initiating CHILD_SA rekeying. CHILD_SA
+
rekeying refreshes key material, optionally using a Diffie-Hellman

exchange if a group is specified in the proposal.
+
To avoid rekey collisions initiated by both ends simultaneously, a value
+
in the range of <option>rand_packets</option> gets subtracted to form
+
the effective soft packet count limit.
+
Packet count based CHILD_SA rekeying is disabled by default.
+
life_packets = mkOptionalIntParam ''
+
Maximum number of packets processed before CHILD_SA gets closed. Usually

mode = mkEnumParam [ "tunnel"
+
IPsec Mode to establish CHILD_SA with.
+
<literal>tunnel</literal> negotiates the CHILD_SA in IPsec Tunnel Mode,
+
whereas <literal>transport</literal> uses IPsec Transport Mode.
+
<literal>transport_proxy</literal> signifying the special Mobile IPv6

shunt policies which explicitly bypass the defined traffic from IPsec
+
processing or drop it, respectively.

Whether to install IPsec policies or not. Disabling this can be useful in
+
some scenarios e.g. MIPv6, where policies are not managed by the IKE
+
policies_fwd_out = mkYesNoParam no ''

Whether to install outbound FWD IPsec policies or not. Enabling this is
+
required in case there is a drop policy that would match and block
+
forwarded traffic for this CHILD_SA. Since 5.5.1.
+
dpd_action = mkEnumParam ["clear" "trap" "restart"] "clear" ''
+
Action to perform for this CHILD_SA on DPD timeout. The default clear
+
closes the CHILD_SA and does not take further action. trap installs a
+
trap policy, which will catch matching traffic and tries to re-negotiate
+
the tunnel on-demand. restart immediately tries to re-negotiate the
+
CHILD_SA under a fresh IKE_SA.

ipcomp = mkYesNoParam no ''
+
Enable IPComp compression before encryption. If enabled, IKE tries to
+
negotiate IPComp compression to compress ESP payload data prior to

Timeout before closing CHILD_SA after inactivity. If no traffic has been
+
processed in either direction for the configured timeout, the CHILD_SA
+
gets closed due to inactivity. The default value of 0 disables inactivity
+
reqid = mkIntParam 0 ''
+
Fixed reqid to use for this CHILD_SA. This might be helpful in some
+
scenarios, but works only if each CHILD_SA configuration is instantiated
+
not more than once. The default of 0 uses dynamic reqids, allocated
+
priority = mkIntParam 0 ''
+
Optional fixed priority for IPsec policies. This could be useful to

interface = mkOptionalStrParam ''
+
Optional interface name to restrict outbound IPsec policies.
+
mark_in = mkStrParam "0/0x00000000" ''
+
Netfilter mark and mask for input traffic. On Linux Netfilter may
+
require marks on each packet to match an SA having that option set. This
+
allows Netfilter rules to select specific tunnels for incoming
+
traffic. The special value <literal>%unique</literal> sets a unique mark
+
on each CHILD_SA instance, beyond that the value
+
<literal>%unique-dir</literal> assigns a different unique mark for each
+
CHILD_SA direction (in/out).
+
An additional mask may be appended to the mark, separated by
+
<literal>/</literal>. The default mask if omitted is
+
<literal>0xffffffff</literal>.
+
mark_out = mkStrParam "0/0x00000000" ''
+
Netfilter mark and mask for output traffic. On Linux Netfilter may
+
require marks on each packet to match a policy having that option

+
tfc_padding = mkParamOfType (with lib.types; either int (enum ["mtu"])) 0 ''
+
Pads ESP packets with additional data to have a consistent ESP packet
+
size for improved Traffic Flow Confidentiality. The padding defines the
+
minimum size of all ESP packets sent. The default value of
+
<literal>0</literal> disables TFC padding, the special value
+
<literal>mtu</literal> adds TFC padding to create a packet size equal to
+
the Path Maximum Transfer Unit.
+
replay_window = mkIntParam 32 ''
+
IPsec replay window to configure for this CHILD_SA. Larger values than
+
the default of <literal>32</literal> are supported using the Netlink

hw_offload = mkYesNoParam no ''
+
Enable hardware offload for this CHILD_SA, if supported by the IPsec
+
start_action = mkEnumParam ["none" "trap" "start"] "none" ''
+
Action to perform after loading the configuration.
+
The default of <literal>none</literal> loads the connection only, which
+
then can be manually initiated or used as a responder configuration.
+
The value <literal>trap</literal> installs a trap policy, which triggers
+
the tunnel as soon as matching traffic has been detected.
+
The value <literal>start</literal> initiates the connection actively.
+
When unloading or replacing a CHILD_SA configuration having a
+
<option>start_action</option> different from <literal>none</literal>,
+
the inverse action is performed. Configurations with
+
<literal>start</literal> get closed, while such with
+
<literal>trap</literal> get uninstalled.
+
close_action = mkEnumParam ["none" "trap" "start"] "none" ''
+
Action to perform after a CHILD_SA gets closed by the peer.
+
The default of <literal>none</literal> does not take any action,
+
<literal>trap</literal> installs a trap policy for the CHILD_SA.
+
<literal>start</literal> tries to re-create the CHILD_SA.
+
<option>close_action</option> does not provide any guarantee that the
+
CHILD_SA is kept alive. It acts on explicit close messages only, but not
+
on negotiation failures. Use trap policies to reliably re-create failed
+
CHILD_SA configuration sub-section. Each connection definition may have
+
one or more sections in its <option>children</option> subsection. The
+
section name defines the name of the CHILD_SA configuration, which must be
+
unique within the connection (denoted <child> below).
