Description-en: strongSwan utility and crypto library (extra plugins)
The strongSwan VPN suite uses the native IPsec stack in the standard
Linux kernel. It supports both the IKEv1 and IKEv2 protocols.
.
This package provides extra plugins for the strongSwan utility and
cryptograhic library.
.
Included plugins are:
- acert (Support of X.509 attribute certificates (since 5.1.3))
- af-alg [linux] (AF_ALG Linux crypto API interface, provides
ciphers/hashers/hmac/xcbc)
- attr-sql (provide IKE attributes read from a database to peers)
- bliss (Bimodal Lattice Signature Scheme (BLISS) post-quantum computer
signature scheme)
- ccm (CCM cipher mode wrapper)
- chapoly (ChaCha20/Poly1305 AEAD implementation)
- cmac (CMAC cipher mode wrapper)
- ctr (CTR cipher mode wrapper)
- coupling (Permanent peer certificate coupling)
- curl (libcurl based HTTP/FTP fetcher)
- dnscert (authentication via CERT RRs protected by DNSSEC)
- gcrypt (Crypto backend based on libgcrypt, provides
RSA/DH/ciphers/hashers/rng)
- ipseckey (authentication via IPSECKEY RRs protected by DNSSEC)
- ldap (LDAP fetching plugin based on libldap)
- load-tester (perform IKE load tests against self or gateway)
- mysql (database backend)
- ntru (key exchanged based on post-quantum computer NTRU)
- padlock (VIA padlock crypto backend, provides AES128/SHA1)
- pkcs11 (PKCS#11 smartcard backend)
- radattr (inject and process custom RADIUS attributes as IKEv2 client)
- sql (SQL configuration and creds engine)
- sqlite (SQLite database backend)
- soup (libsoup based HTTP fetcher)
- rdrand (High quality / high performance random source using the Intel
rdrand instruction found on Ivy Bridge processors)
- test-vectors (Set of test vectors for various algorithms)
- unbound (DNSSEC enabled resolver using libunbound)
- whitelist (peer verification against a whitelist)
