You can usually identify the problem more easily by looking at packet traces, than by looking at logs. From memory, this should do the trick: # echo p on > /var/run/isakmpd.fifo [allow it to attempt negotiation] # echo p off > /var/run/isakmpd.fifo # tcpdump -nvvr /var/run/isakmpd.pcap > My question is - what is the default key lifetime (in seconds preferably) > for the 4.2 implementation of isakmp? It's unchanged, and mentioned in isakmpd.conf(5); [General] Default-phase-1-lifetime= 3600,60:86400 Default-phase-2-lifetime= 1200,60:86400 The Main Mode lifetime currently defaults to one hour (minimum 60 sec- onds, maximum 1 day). The Quick Mode lifetime defaults to 20 minutes (minimum 60 seconds, maximum 1 day). (note that ipsec.conf is parsed into isakmpd.conf configuration sections, so this still applies; you can see this happening with ipsecctl -nvf /etc/ipsec.conf). > - Is there a modifier in 4.2 ipsec.conf to use automatic keying with a > specified key lifetime? I can't find it for the life of me. It is currently only "documented" in the ipsecctl regression tests, you can use this format: ike esp from 10.1.1.0/24 to 10.1.2.0/24 \ peer 192.168.3.2 \ main life 12345 quick life 23456 \ srcid me.mylan.net dstid the.others.net
