SETKEY(8) NetBSD System Manager's Manual SETKEY(8)
NAME
setkey - manually manipulate the IPsec SA/SP database
SYNOPSIS
setkey [-v] file ... setkey [-v] -c setkey [-v] -f filename setkey [-aPlv] -D setkey [-Pv] -F setkey [-h] -x
DESCRIPTION
setkey adds, updates, dumps, or flushes Security Association Database (SAD) entries as well as Security Policy Database (SPD) entries in the kernel. setkey takes a series of operations from the standard input (if invoked with -c) or the file named filename (if invoked with -f filename). (no flag) Dump the SAD entries or SPD entries contained in the specified file. -D Dump the SAD entries. If with -P, the SPD entries are dumped. -F Flush the SAD entries. If with -P, the SPD entries are flushed. -a setkey usually does not display dead SAD entries with -D. If with -a, the dead SAD entries will be displayed as well. A dead SAD entry means that it has been expired but remains in the sys- tem because it is referenced by some SPD entries. -h Add hexadecimal dump on -x mode. -l Loop forever with short output on -D. -v Be verbose. The program will dump messages exchanged on PF_KEY socket, including messages sent from other processes to the ker- nel. -x Loop forever and dump all the messages transmitted to PF_KEY socket. -xx makes each timestamps unformatted. Configuration syntax With -c or -f on the command line, setkey accepts the following configu- ration syntax. Lines starting with hash signs ('#') are treated as com- ment lines. 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. get [-46n] src dst protocol spi ; Show an SAD entry. delete [-46n] src dst protocol spi ; Remove an SAD entry. deleteall [-46n] src dst protocol ; Remove all SAD entries that match the specification. flush [protocol] ; Clear all SAD entries matched by the options. -F on the command line achieves the same functionality. dump [protocol] ; Dumps all SAD entries matched by the options. -D on the command line achieves the same functionality. spdadd [-46n] src_range dst_range upperspec policy ; Add an SPD entry. spddelete [-46n] src_range dst_range upperspec -P direction ; Delete an SPD entry. spdflush ; Clear all SPD entries. -FP on the command line achieves the same functionality. spddump ; Dumps all SPD entries. -DP on the command line achieves the same functionality. Meta-arguments are as follows: src dst Source/destination of the secure communication is specified as IPv4/v6 address. setkey can resolve a FQDN into numeric addresses. If the FQDN resolves into multiple addresses, setkey will install multiple SAD/SPD entries into the kernel by trying all possible combinations. -4, -6 and -n restricts the address resolution of FQDN in certain ways. -4 and -6 restrict results into IPv4/v6 addresses only, respectively. -n avoids FQDN reso- lution and requires addresses to be numeric addresses. protocol protocol is one of following: esp ESP based on rfc2406 esp-old ESP based on rfc1827 ah AH based on rfc2402 ah-old AH based on rfc1826 ipcomp IPComp spi Security Parameter Index (SPI) for the SAD and the SPD. spi must be a decimal number, or a hexadecimal number with ``0x'' prefix. SPI values between 0 and 255 are reserved for future use by IANA and they cannot be used. 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. -r size Specify window size of bytes for replay prevention. size must be decimal number in 32-bit word. If size is zero or not specified, replay check don't take place. -u id Specify the identifier of the policy entry in SPD. See policy. -f pad_option defines the content of the ESP padding. pad_option is one of following: zero-pad All of the padding are zero. random-pad A series of randomized values are set. seq-pad A series of sequential increasing numbers started from 1 are set. -f nocyclic-seq Don't allow cyclic sequence number. -lh time -ls time Specify hard/soft life time duration of the SA. algorithm -E ealgo key Specify a encryption algorithm ealgo for ESP. -E ealgo key -A aalgo key Specify a encryption algorithm ealgo, as well as a payload authentication algorithm aalgo, for ESP. -A aalgo key Specify an authentication algorithm for AH. -C calgo [-R] Specify a compression algorithm for IPComp. If -R is specified, spi field value will be used as the IPComp CPI (compression parameter index) on wire as is. If -R is not specified, the kernel will use well-known CPI on wire, and spi field will be used only as an index for kernel internal usage. key must be double-quoted character string, or a series of hexa- decimal digits preceded by ``0x''. Possible values for ealgo, aalgo and calgo are specified in sepa- rate section. src_range dst_range These are selections of the secure communication specified as IPv4/v6 address or IPv4/v6 address range, and it may accompany TCP/UDP port specification. This takes the following form: address address/prefixlen address[port] address/prefixlen[port] prefixlen and port must be decimal number. The square bracket around port is really necessary. They are not manpage metachar- acters. For FQDN resolution, the rules applicable to src and dst apply here as well. upperspec Upper-layer protocol to be used. You can use one of words in /etc/protocols as upperspec. Or icmp6, ip4, and any can be spec- ified. any stands for ``any protocol''. Also you can use the protocol number. NOTE: upperspec does not work against forwarding case at this moment, as it requires extra reassembly at forwarding node (not implemented at this moment). We have many protocols in /etc/protocols, but protocols except of TCP, UDP and ICMP may not be suitable to use with IPsec. You have to consider and be care- ful to use them. policy policy is the one of the following three formats: -P direction discard -P direction none -P direction ipsec protocol/mode/src-dst/level [...] You must specify the direction of its policy as direction. Either out or in are used. discard means the packet matching indexes will be discarded. none means that IPsec operation will not take place onto the packet. ipsec means that IPsec operation will take place onto the packet. The part of protocol/mode/src-dst/level specifies the rule how to process the packet. Either ah, esp or ipcomp is to be set as protocol. mode is either transport or tunnel. If mode is tunnel, you must spec- ify the end-points addresses of the SA as src and dst with `-' between these addresses which is used to specify the SA to use. If mode is transport, both src and dst can be omitted. level is to be one of the following: default, use, require or unique. If the SA is not available in every level, the kernel will request getting SA to the key exchange daemon. default means the kernel consults to the system wide default against protocol you speci- fied, e.g. esp_trans_deflev sysctl variable, when the kernel processes the packet. use means that the kernel use a SA if it's available, otherwise the kernel keeps normal operation. require means SA is required whenever the kernel sends a packet matched with the policy. unique is the same to require, in addition, it allows the policy to bind with the unique out-bound SA. You just specify the policy level unique, racoon(8) will configure the SA for the policy. If you configure the SA by manual keying for that policy, you can put the decimal number as the policy identi- fier after unique separated by colon `:' like the following; unique:number. in order to bind this policy to the SA. number must be between 1 and 32767. It corresponds to extensions -u of the manual SA configuration. When you want to use SA bundle, you can define multiple rules. For example, if an IP header was fol- lowed by AH header followed by ESP header followed by an upper layer protocol header, the rule would be: esp/transport//require ah/transport//require; The rule order is very important. Note that ``discard'' and ``none'' are not in the syntax described in ipsec_set_policy(3). There are little differences in the syntax. See ipsec_set_policy(3) for detail.

HISTORY
The setkey command first appeared in WIDE Hydrangea IPv6 protocol stack kit. The command was completely re-designed in June 1998.
BUGS
setkey should report and handle syntax errors better. For IPsec gateway configuration, src_range and dst_range with TCP/UDP port number do not work, as the gateway does not reassemble packets (cannot inspect upper-layer headers). NetBSD 2.0.2 October 21, 2003 NetBSD 2.0.2
