Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual (H06.16+, J06.05+)
NOTE: There are independent remote entries for each provider when the MULTIPROV option is
ON for a particular CLIM.
Description
Climconfig
Command
Add remote entry into racoon.conf configuration fileremote –add
Delete proposals for remote IP address from racoon.conf configuration fileremote –delete
Display proposals and other configurations for the remote IP address from the racoon.conf
configuration file
remote –info
Controlling the Virtual Private Network (VPN)
You activate and deactivate the virtual private network (VPN) connections by using the following
commands:
DescriptionCommand
Load configured security policies into the security policy databasesp –start
Display status of virtual private network (VPN) connectionvpn –status
Unload security policies from security policy databasesp –stop
Unload security associations from security association databasesa –stop
Using IPSec
Tasks for configuring and managing IPSec are:
• Configuring, controlling, and monitoring manual IPSec connections
• Configuring, controlling, and monitoring automatic IPSec connections by using pre-shared
key or X.509 security certificates
• Configuring all IPSec related attributes such as SP, SA, remote, and psk on a set of CLIMs
• Adding a static route on the IPSec-enabled CLIM so the host routing decisions favor NonStop
host system application traffic to be forwarded to this CLIM
• Restarting the racoon daemon if you add a new SA or remote attribute using the -restart
option. (Restart of racoon causes all active SAs in the kernel's SAD to be flushed (whether
these were automatically established by racoon, or were manually added SAs by climconfig).
This results in disruption of existing application data traffic over the established IPSec
connections.)
• If a SP is modified (delete followed by add), a new IPSec connection is re-established
Here is a sample script for using CLIMCMD on a CLIM with MULTIPROV OFF on the NonStop host
system to issue IPSec climconfig commands to do sp, remote and sa with X.509 security certificates:
CLIMCMD 16.107.170.193 climconfig sp -add
-s 1.2.3.6 -d 1.2.3.4 -u any -dir in -policy ipsec
-protocol esp -mode transport -level require -load
CLIMCMD 16.107.170.193 climconfig sp -add
-s 1.2.3.4 -d 1.2.3.6 -u any -dir out -policy ipsec
-protocol esp -mode transport -level require -load
CLIMCMD 16.107.170.193 climconfig remote -add
-ip 1.2.3.6 -M base -idtype asn1dn
-pubcert host1_cert.pem
-privkey host1_key.pem -E 3des -H md5 -A rsasig
-D modp768 -restart
CLIMCMD 16.107.170.193 climconfig sa -add
