in.iked(1M) System Administration Commands in.iked(1M)
NAME
in.iked - daemon for the Internet Key Exchange (IKE)
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/inet/in.iked [-d] [-f filename] [-p level]
/usr/lib/inet/in.iked -c [-f filename]
DESCRIPTION
in.iked performs automated key management for IPsec using the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol.
in.iked implements the following:
o IKE authentication with either pre-shared keys, DSS signatures, RSA signatures, or RSA encryption.
o Diffie-Hellman key derivation using either 768, 1024, or 1536-bit public key moduli.
o Authentication protection with cipher choices of DES, Blowfish, or 3DES, and hash choices of either HMAC-MD5 or HMAC-SHA-1. Encryption
in in.iked is limited to the IKE authentication and key exchange. See ipsecesp(7P) for information regarding IPsec protection
choices.
in.iked starts at boot time if the /etc/inet/ike/config file exists. See ike.config(4) for the format of this file.
in.iked listens for incoming IKE requests from the network and for requests for outbound traffic using the PF_KEY socket. See pf_key(7P).
in.iked has two support programs that are used for IKE administration and diagnosis: ikeadm(1M) and ikecert(1M).
The SIGHUP signal causes the IKE daemon to read /etc/inet/ike/config and reload the certificate database. SIGHUP is equivalent to using
ikeadm(1M) to read the /etc/inet/ike/config file as a rule, for example:
example# ikeadm read rule /etc/inet/ike/config
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-c Check the syntax of a configuration file.
-d Use debug mode. The process stays attached to the controlling terminal and produces large amounts of debugging output.
-f filename Use filename instead of /etc/inet/ike/config. See ike.config(4) for the format of this file.
-p level Specify privilege level (level). This option sets how much ikeadm(1M) invocations can change or observe about the running
in.iked.
Valid levels are:
0 Base level
1 Access to preshared key info
2 Access to keying material
If -p is not specified, level defaults to 0.
SECURITY
This program has sensitive private keying information in its image. Care should be taken with any core dumps or system dumps of a running
in.iked daemon, as these files contain sensitive keying information. Use the coreadm(1M) command to limit any corefiles produced by
in.iked.
FILES
/etc/inet/ike/config
/etc/inet/secret/ike.privatekeys/*
Private keys. A private key must have a matching public-key certificate with the same filename in /etc/inet/ike/publickeys/.
/etc/inet/ike/publickeys/*
Public-key certificates. The names are only important with regard to matching private key names.
/etc/inet/ike/crls/*
Public key certificate revocation lists.
/etc/inet/secret/ike.preshared
IKE pre-shared secrets for Phase I authentication.
