sa mode "any" broken in setkey

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hello,

the setkey manual page says:

     add [-46n] src dst protocol spi [extensions] algorithm ... ;
             Add an SAD entry.  add can fail with multiple reasons, including
             when the key length does not match the specified algorithm.

...

     extensions
             take some of the following:
             -m mode     Specify a security protocol mode for use.  mode is
                         one of following: transport, tunnel or any.  The
                         default value is any.

however, by default the security associations end up with
mode=transport according to setkey -D. they also end up with mode=transport
if i specify "-m any". this is obviously wrong.

so i have to specify "-m tunnel" to get tunnel mode to work. it took me
a while to figure this out since i was staring at
http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/network/ipsec/#sample_leaftunnel
and just getting "network is unreachable"...

this is with linux 2.6.0 and ipsec-tools 0.2.2-8 from debian.
