HP-UX IPSec Release Notes
What’s in This Version
Chapter 1 5
• Certificate IDs are configured in authentication records. The authentication records are
indexed and searched by remote IP address. There is no longer a certificate ID record for
the local system (127.0.0.0).
•The ipsec_report utility supports the following new options:
• -entity (used with the -audit option): The -entity option allows you to specify one
or more entities when displaying an audit file (-audit). This allows you to selectively
display audit records logged by specify entities.
• -host: The -host option displays IPSec policies loaded by the policy daemon.
• -ike: The -ike option displays IKE policies loaded by the policy daemon.
• -gateway: The -gateway option displays gateway IPSec policies loaded by the policy
daemon.
• -tunnel: The -tunnel option displays tunnel IPSec policies loaded by the policy
daemon.
The ipsec_report options -ipsec and -isakmp are still supported, but only for
backwards compatibility and are not documented. The ipsec_report option -ipsec
reports host IPSec policies (it is now equivalent to the -host option). The
ipsec_report option -isakmp reports IKE policies (it is now equivalent to the -ike
option).
•The ipsec_policy utility now allows you to specify a direction for the packet parameters.
•The ipsec_admin utility supports the following new options to set general operating
parameters:
• -spd_soft: The -spd_soft option allows you to specify the “soft” limit for the size of
the Security Policy Database (SPD). The SPD is the HP-UX IPSec runtime policy
database, with cached policy decisions for packet descriptors (five-tuples consisting of
exact, non-wildcard source IP address, destination IP address, protocol, source port,
and destination port).
• -spd_hard: The -spd_hard option allows you to specify the “hard” limit for the size of
the SPD.
• -spi_min: The -spi_min option allows you to specify the lower bound for inbound,
dynamic key Security Parameters Index (SPI) numbers.
• -spi_max: The -spi_max option allows you to specify the upper bound for inbound,
dynamic key Security Parameters Index (SPI) numbers.
• IPv6 IKE functionality, formerly provided by the daemon ikmpdv6, is now provided by
ikmpd. The ikmpdv6 daemon is no longer shipped with the product.
