NAME
l2tp-secrets - L2TPD secrets file DESCRIPTION
The l2tp-secrets file contains challenge-response authentication information for xl2tpd, the implementation of l2tp protocol. The format of the file is derived from the pap and chap secrets file format used in pppd. The secrets file is composed of zero or more lines with 3 fields each. Each line represents an authentication secret. The 3 fields repre- sent our hostname, the remote hostname and the secret used in the authentication process. The first field is for our hostname, a "*" may be used as a wildcard. The second field is for the remote system's hostname. Again, a "*" may be used as a wildcard. The third field is the secret used if the previous two fields match the hostnames of the systems involved. The secret should, ideally, be at 16 characters long (the length of an MD5 digest output), and should probably be longer to ensure sufficient security. There is no mini- mum length requirement, however. FILES

NAME
Sys::Virt::Secret - Represent & manage a libvirt secret DESCRIPTION
The "Sys::Virt::Secret" module represents a secret managed by the virtual machine monitor. METHODS
my $uuid = $sec->get_uuid() Returns a 16 byte long string containing the raw globally unique identifier (UUID) for the secret. my $uuid = $sec->get_uuid_string() Returns a printable string representation of the raw UUID, in the format 'XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX'. my $type = $sec->get_usage_type() Returns the usage type of this secret. The usage type determines the format of the unique identifier for this secret. my $id = $sec->get_usage_id() Returns the identifier of the object with which the secret is to be used. For secrets with a usage type of volume, the identifier is the fully qualfied path. my $xml = $sec->get_xml_description() Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the secret's configuration $sec->undefine() Remove the configuration associated with a secret previously defined with the "define_secret" method in Sys::Virt. $bytes = $sec->get_value() Returns the raw bytes for the value of this secret, or undef if there is no value stored with the secret. $sec->set_value($bytes) Sets the value for the secret to be $bytes. CONSTANTS
Sys::Virt::Secret::USAGE_TYPE_NONE The constant for secrets which are not assigned for use with a particular object Sys::Virt::Secret::USAGE_TYPE_VOLUME The constant for secrets which are to be used for storage volume encryption. The usage ID for secrets will refer to the fully qualified volume path. Sys::Virt::Secret::USAGE_TYPE_CEPH The constant for secrets which are to be used for authenticating to CEPH storage volumes. The usage ID for secrets will refer to the server name. AUTHORS
