IPSEC_VERIFY(8)			[FIXME: manual]		       IPSEC_VERIFY(8)

NAME
       ipsec_verify - see if FreeSWAN has been installed correctly

SYNOPSIS
       ipsec verify [--host name]

DESCRIPTION
       Invoked without argument, verify examines the local system for a number
       of common system faults: IPsec not in path, no secrets file generated,
       pluto not running, and IPsec support not present in kernel (or IPsec
       module not loaded). If two or more interfaces are found, it performs
       checks relevant on an IPsec gateway: whether IP forwarding is allowed,
       and if so, whether MASQ or NAT rules are in play.

       In addition, verify performs checks relevant to Opportunistic
       Encryption. It looks in forward DNS for a TXT record for the system´s
       hostname, and in reverse DNS for a TXT record for the system´s IP
       addresses. It checks whether the system has a public IP.

       The --host option causes verify to look for a TXT record for name in
       forward and reverse DNS.

HISTORY
       Written for the Linux FreeS/WAN project <http://www.freeswan.org> by
       Michael Richardson.

BUGS
       Verify does not check for ipchains masquerading.

       Verify does not look for TXT records for Opportunistic clients behind
       the system.
