Web: ESP algorithm
UCI: strongswan.@connection[X].esp
Opt: esp
Specifies the esp algorithm to use.
The format is: encAlgo | authAlgo | DHGroup
encAlgo:
3des
aes128
aes256
serpent
twofish
blowfish
authAlgo:
md5
sha
sha2
DHGroup:
modp1024
modp1536
modp2048
modp3072
modp4096
modp6144
modp8192
For example, a valid encryption algorithm is:
aes128-sha-modp1536.
If no DH group is defined then PFS is disabled.
Web: WAN Interface
UCI: strongswan.@connection[X].waniface
Opt: waniface
This is a space separated list of the WAN interfaces the router
will use to establish a tunnel with the secure gateway.
On the web, a list of the interface names is automatically
generated. If you want to specify more than one interface use
the “custom” value.
Example: If you have a 3G WAN interface called ‘wan and a
WAN ADSL interface called ‘dsl’ and wanted to use one of
these interfaces for this IPSec connection, you would use:
‘wan adsl’.
Web: IKE Life Time
UCI: strongswan.@connection[X].ikelifetime
Opt:ikelifetime
Specifies how long the keyring channel of a connection
(ISAKMP or IKE SA) should last before being renegotiated.
Web: Key Life
UCI: strongswan.@connection[X].keylife
Opt: keylife
Specifies how long a particular instance of a connection (a set
of encryption/authentication keys for user packets) should
last, from successful negotiation to expiry.
Normally, the connection is renegotiated (via the keying
channel) before it expires (see rekeymargin).
Web: Rekey Margin
UCI:
strongswan.@connection[X].rekeymargin
Opt: rekeymargin
Specifies how long before connection expiry or keying-
channel expiry should attempt to negotiate a replacement
begin.
Relevant only locally, other end need not agree on it.
Web: Keyring Tries
UCI: strongswan.@connection[X].keyringtries
Opt: keyringtries
Specifies how many attempts (a positive integer or %forever)
should be made to negotiate a connection, or a replacement
for one, before giving up. The value %forever means 'never
give up'. Relevant only locally, other end need not agree on
it.
