RACOON(8) System Manager's Manual RACOON(8) NAME racoon -- IKE (ISAKMP/Oakley) key management daemon SYNOPSIS racoon [-46BdFLVv] [-f configfile] [-l logfile] [-P isakmp-natt-port] [-p isakmp-port] DESCRIPTION racoon speaks the IKE (ISAKMP/Oakley) key management protocol, to establish security associations with other hosts. The SPD (Security Policy Database) in the kernel usually triggers racoon. racoon usually sends all informa- tional messages, warnings and error messages to syslogd(8) with the facil- ity LOG_DAEMON and the priority LOG_INFO. Debugging messages are sent with the priority LOG_DEBUG. You should configure syslog.conf(5) appropriately to see these messages. -4 -6 Specify the default address family for the sockets. -B Install SA(s) from the file which is specified in racoon.conf(5). -d Increase the debug level. Multiple -d arguments will increase the debug level even more. -F Run racoon in the foreground. -f configfile Use configfile as the configuration file instead of the default. -L Include file_name:line_number:function_name in all messages. -l logfile Use logfile as the logging file instead of syslogd(8). -P isakmp-natt-port Use isakmp-natt-port for NAT-Traversal port-floating. The default is 4500. -p isakmp-port Listen to the ISAKMP key exchange on port isakmp-port instead of the default port number, 500. -V Print racoon version and compilation options and exit. -v This flag causes the packet dump be more verbose, with higher de- bugging level. racoon assumes the presence of the kernel random number device rnd(4) at /dev/urandom. RETURN VALUES The command exits with 0 on success, and non-zero on errors. FILES /etc/racoon.conf default configuration file.
