1 | The roadwarrior <b>carol</b> and the gateway <b>moon</b> use the <b>openssl</b> |
| 2 | plugin based on the <b>OpenSSL</b> library for all cryptographical functions | |
| 3 | whereas roadwarrior <b>dave</b> uses the default <b>strongSwan</b> cryptographical | |
| 4 | plugins <b>aes des sha1 sha2 md5 gmp</b> plus the <b>openssl</b> plugin for | |
| 5 | the Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman groups only. | |
| 6 | <p> | |
| 7 | The roadwarriors <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> set up a connection each | |
| 8 | to gateway <b>moon</b>. The authentication is based on <b>X.509 certificates</b>. | |
| 9 | <b>carol</b> proposes the DH groups ECP_256 and ECP_384 whereas <b>dave</b> proposes | |
| 10 | ECP_256 and ECP_521. Since <b>moon</b> does not support ECP_256 the roadwarriors | |
| 11 | fall back to ECP_384 and ECP_521, respectively. | |
| 12 | <p> | |
| 13 | Upon the successful establishment of the IPsec tunnels, <b>leftfirewall=yes</b> | |
| 14 | automatically inserts iptables-based firewall rules that let pass the tunneled traffic. | |
| 15 | In order to test both tunnel and firewall, both <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> ping | |
| 16 | the client <b>alice</b> behind the gateway <b>moon</b>. | |
