DESCRIPTION

xfrm is an IP framework for transforming packets (such as encrypting their payloads). This framework is used to implement the IPsec protocol suite (with the state object operating on the Security Association Database, and the policy object operating on the Security Policy Database). It is also used for the IP Payload Compression Protocol and features of Mobile IPv6.

is specified by a source address, destination address, transform protocol XFRM-PROTO, and/or Security Parameter Index SPI. (For IP Payload Compression, the Compression Parameter Index or CPI is used for SPI.)

XFRM-PROTO

specifies a transform protocol: IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (esp), IPsec Authentication Header (ah), IP Payload Compression (comp), Mobile IPv6 Type 2 Routing Header (route2), or Mobile IPv6 Home Address Option (hao).

ALGO-LIST

contains one or more algorithms to use. Each algorithm ALGO is specified by:

	•		the algorithm type: encryption (enc), authentication (auth or auth-trunc), authenticated encryption with associated data (aead), or compression (comp)
	•		the algorithm name ALGO-NAME (see below)
	•		(for all except comp) the keying material ALGO-KEYMAT, which may include both a key and a salt or nonce value; refer to the corresponding RFC
	•		(for auth-trunc only) the truncation length ALGO-TRUNC-LEN in bits
	•		(for aead only) the Integrity Check Value length ALGO-ICV-LEN in bits

Encryption algorithms include ecb(cipher_null), cbc(des), cbc(des3_ede), cbc(cast5), cbc(blowfish), cbc(aes), cbc(serpent), cbc(camellia), cbc(twofish), and rfc3686(ctr(aes)).

Authentication algorithms include digest_null, hmac(md5), hmac(sha1), hmac(sha256), hmac(sha384), hmac(sha512), hmac(rmd160), and xcbc(aes).

Authenticated encryption with associated data (AEAD) algorithms include rfc4106(gcm(aes)), rfc4309(ccm(aes)), and rfc4543(gcm(aes)).

Compression algorithms include deflate, lzs, and lzjh.

MODE

specifies a mode of operation for the transform protocol. IPsec and IP Payload Compression modes are transport, tunnel, and (for IPsec ESP only) Bound End-to-End Tunnel (beet). Mobile IPv6 modes are route optimization (ro) and inbound trigger (in_trigger).

FLAG-LIST

contains one or more of the following optional flags: noecn, decap-dscp, nopmtudisc, wildrecv, icmp, af-unspec, align4, or esn.

SELECTOR

selects the traffic that will be controlled by the policy, based on the source address, the destination address, the network device, and/or UPSPEC.

UPSPEC

selects traffic by protocol. For the tcp, udp, sctp, or dccp protocols, the source and destination port can optionally be specified. For the icmp, ipv6-icmp, or mobility-header protocols, the type and code numbers can optionally be specified. For the gre protocol, the key can optionally be specified as a dotted-quad or number. Other protocols can be selected by name or number PROTO.

LIMIT-LIST

sets limits in seconds, bytes, or numbers of packets.

	ENCAP		encapsulates packets with protocol espinudp, espinudp-nonike, or espintcp, using source port SPORT, destination port DPORT , and original address OADDR.
	MARK		used to match xfrm policies and states

OUTPUT-MARK

used to set the output mark to influence the routing of the packets emitted by the state

	IF-ID		xfrm interface identifier used to in both xfrm policies and states
	DEV		Network interface name used to offload policies and states

nosock

filter (remove) all socket policies from the output.

SELECTOR

selects the traffic that will be controlled by the policy, based on the source address, the destination address, the network device, and/or UPSPEC.

	UPSPEC		selects traffic by protocol. For the tcp, udp, sctp, or dccp protocols, the source and destination port can optionally be specified. For the icmp, ipv6-icmp, or mobility-header protocols, the type and code numbers can optionally be specified. For the gre protocol, the key can optionally be specified as a dotted-quad or number. Other protocols can be selected by name or number PROTO.
	DIR		selects the policy direction as in, out, or fwd.
	CTX		sets the security context.
	PTYPE		can be main (default) or sub.
	ACTION		can be allow (default) or block.

PRIORITY

is a number that defaults to zero.

FLAG-LIST

contains one or both of the following optional flags: local or icmp.

LIMIT-LIST

sets limits in seconds, bytes, or numbers of packets.

TMPL-LIST

is a template list specified using ID, MODE, REQID, and/or LEVEL.

XFRM-PROTO

	MODE		specifies a mode of operation for the transform protocol. IPsec and IP Payload Compression modes are transport, tunnel, and (for IPsec ESP only) Bound End-to-End Tunnel (beet). Mobile IPv6 modes are route optimization (ro) and inbound trigger (in_trigger).
	LEVEL		can be required (default) or use.

Use one or more -s options to display more details, including policy hash table information.

Security policies whose address prefix lengths are greater than or equal policy hash table thresholds are hashed. Others are stored in the policy_inexact chained list.

	LBITS		specifies the minimum local address prefix length of policies that are stored in the Security Policy Database hash table.
	RBITS		specifies the minimum remote address prefix length of policies that are stored in the Security Policy Database hash table.

The xfrm objects to monitor can be optionally specified.

If the all-nsid option is set, the program listens to all network namespaces that have a nsid assigned into the network namespace were the program is running. A prefix is displayed to show the network namespace where the message originates. Example:

[nsid 1]Flushed state proto 0
