sys_attrs_ipsec(5)
NAME
sys_attrs_ipsec - ipsec subsystem attributes
DESCRIPTION
This reference page lists and describes attributes for the Internet
Protocol Security (ipsec) kernel subsystem. Refer to the sys_attrs(5)
reference page for an introduction to the topic of kernel subsystem
attributes.
ip_secured
A value that enables (1) or disables (0) the ability of IPsec to
intercept packets when ipsecd is not running. If ipsecd is not running
and the attribute is enabled, packets will be dropped. By default, this
attribute is enabled when IPsec is started by using the normal startup
procedures.
Default value: 1 (enabled)
Do not modify this attribute unless you understand the security
consequences for your system. If you disable this attribute, you might
send sensitive traffic without IPsec protection or receive traffic that
should be blocked.
passby_cluif_traffic
A value that enables (1) or disables (0) a system's ability to pass
traffic to and receive traffic from a cluster interconnect interface
without Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) processing.
Default value: 1 (enabled)
We recommend that this attribute remain enabled. If you disable this
attribute, you must then configure an IPsec policy to include the
cluster interconnect addresses. However, even with an IPsec policy
configured, it is not possible to secure all cluster interconnect
traffic with IPsec as the cluster generates traffic before the security
policy is started. See the Network Administration: Connections manual
for more information about configuring IPsec.
stats_update_interval
The time interval between updates of IPsec Security Association (SA)
statistics by the kernel. If you have a very large number of SAs,
increase the stats_update_interval value to reduce the overhead of
maintaining the statistics.
Default value: 5 (seconds)
Minimum value: 1
Maximum value: 60
