       ipsec addconn --help

DESCRIPTION
       ipsec addconn takes a config file (or stdin) containing the format of ipsec.conf, or the format of individual "conn" sections, and uses
       that information to load named or all connections defined in that configuration file into the running openswan pluto IKE daemon. If no
       configuration file is specified, the default configuration file is used. If no pluto socket is specified, the default socket location will
       be used.

       When --addall is used, all connections defined in the config file will be operated on. Otherwise, only the specified connection names will
       be affected.

       When addcon is run, connections that have the auto= option set to add, start or route will be loaded, routed or initiated. If a connection
       was loaded or initiated already, it will be replaced.

       When --configsetup is specified, the configuration file is parsed for the config setup section and printed to the terminal usable as a
       shell script.

       When --listroute or --liststart is specified, no connections are added or replaced, only shown. This command can be used to verify which
       connections the addcon command would act upon, without actually performing any action.
