[Openswan Users] IKE status

Thanks Paul,

I believe this command gives you the IPsec status (via the tun0x reference),
but what I really wanted was a separate listing for ISAKMP SA status for
each configured peer.  For example, during the troubleshooting process this
would enable me to determine if IKE (phase 1) was up, but ESP (phase 2)
wasn't.  Then I would know where to go and troubleshoot, phase 2 parameters
in this case.

If you are using klips, there is "ipsec eroute"

[root at tla root]# ipsec eroute
2          0.0.0.0/0          -> 0.0.0.0/0          => %trap
48278      193.110.157.130/32 -> 0.0.0.0/0          => %trap
6460       193.110.157.130/32 -> 24.36.180.146/32   => %pass
110        193.110.157.130/32 -> 205.150.200.165/32 =>
tun0x1256 at 205.150.200.134
0          193.110.157.130/32 -> 205.150.200.254/32 =>
tun0x123e at 205.150.200.254
18015      193.110.157.130/32 -> 209.112.44.0/24    => %hold

This however, does not know about the connection names. We are planning to
add that in the future, but it requires pushing the name from userland to
kernel.
