<title>IPSEC</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The 2.6 Linux kernel introduces a new implementation of IPSEC which
|
|
eliminates the <filename class="devicefile">ipsecN</filename> device
|
|
names. Netfilter/iptables support for this new implementation is
|
|
incomplete unless your kernel has been patched. For unpatched kernels, see
|
|
the <ulink url="IPSEC.htm">Shorewall IPSEC documentation</ulink>
|
|
(Shorewall support for IPSEC with unpatched 2.6 kernels is very limited).
|
|
For patched 2.6 kernels (including those supplied with
|
|
<trademark>SUSE</trademark> 9.2) see the <ulink
|
|
url="IPSEC-2.6.html">Kernel 2.6 IPSEC documentation</ulink>.</para>
