Description: Internet Key Exchange daemon
Libreswan is an IPsec implementation for Linux. It has support for most
of the extensions (RFC + IETF drafts) related to IPsec, including
IKEv2, X.509 Digital Certificates, NAT Traversal, and many others.
.
Libreswan has been forked from Openswan 2.6.38, which was forked from
FreeS/WAN 1.99.
.
The Libreswan IKE daemon is named pluto. It was inherited from the FreeS/WAN
project, but provides improved X.509 certificate support and other features.
