I don't understand the question.
Could you elaborate on what do you mean by 'using only commands'?

NAME
ipsec_look - get a quick summary of Libreswan status SYNOPSIS
ipsec look DESCRIPTION
Look is used to get a quick overview of what the status of Libreswan is. It is the equivalent to running the commands ipsec eroute, ipsec spigrp, ipsec tncfg, ipsec spi and netstat -rn. However a bit of processing is done to combine the outputs. Some of the above commands, and there for ipsec look, are only supported with the KLIPS or MAST stack, and will give errors when used on BSD, Windows or Linux with NETKEY. SEE ALSO
ipsec(8), ipsec_tncfg(8), ipsec_spi(8), ipsec_spigrp(8), ipsec_eroute(5), netstat(8). HISTORY
Man page written for the Linux FreeS/WAN project <http://www.freeswan.org/> by Michael Richardson. Original program written by Henry Spencer. AUTHOR
