+.SH NAME
+ipsec_spi \- list IPSEC Security Associations
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B ipsec
+.B spi
+.PP
+.B cat
+.B /proc/net/ipsec_spi
+.PP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I /proc/net/ipsec_spi
+is a read-only file that lists the current IPSEC Security Associations.
+A Security Association (SA) is a transform through which packet contents
+are to be processed before being forwarded. A transform can be an
+IPv4-in-IPv4 or IPv6-in-IPv6 encapsulation, an IPSEC Authentication Header (authentication
+with no encryption), or an IPSEC Encapsulation Security Payload
+(encryption, possibly including authentication).
+.PP
+When a packet is passed from a higher networking layer through an IPSEC
+virtual interface, a search in the extended routing table (see
+.IR ipsec_eroute (5))
+yields
+a IP protocol number
+,
+a Security Parameters Index (SPI)
+and
+an effective destination address
+.
+When an IPSEC packet arrives from the network,
+its ostensible destination, an SPI and an IP protocol
+specified by its outermost IPSEC header are used.
+The destination/SPI/protocol combination is used to select a relevant SA.
+(See
+.IR ipsec_spigrp (5)
+for discussion of how multiple transforms are combined.)
+.PP
+An
+.I spi ,
+.I proto,
+.I daddr
+and
+.IR address_family
+arguments specify an SAID.
+.I Proto
+is an ASCII string, "ah", "esp", "comp" or "tun", specifying the IP protocol.
+.I Spi
+is a number, preceded by '.' indicating hexadecimal and IPv4 or by ':' indicating hexadecimal and IPv6,
+where each hexadecimal digit represents 4 bits,
+between
+.B 0x100
+and
+.BR 0xffffffff ;
+values from
+.B 0x0
+to
+.B 0xff
+are reserved.
+.I Daddr
+is a dotted-decimal IPv4 destination address or a coloned hex IPv6 destination address.
+.PP
+An
+.I SAID
+combines the three parameters above, such as: "tun.101@1.2.3.4" for IPv4 or "tun:101@3049:1::1" for IPv6
+.PP
+A table entry consists of:

+.IP +
+out-of-order window size, number of out-of-order errors, sequence

+.LP
+is an outbound IPv4-in-IPv4 (protocol 4) tunnel-mode SA set up between machines
+192.168.43.2 and 192.168.43.1 with an SPI of 12a in hexadecimal that has
+passed about 14 kilobytes of traffic in 14 packets since it was created,
+269 seconds ago, first used 149 seconds ago and has been idle for 23
+seconds.

+.LP
+is an inbound Encapsulating Security Payload (protocol 50) SA on machine
+3049:1::1 with an SPI of 9a35fc02 that uses 3DES as the encryption
+cipher, HMAC MD5 as the authentication algorithm, an out-of-order
+window of 32 packets, a present sequence number of 7149, every one of
+the last 32 sequence numbers was received, the authenticator length and
+keys is 128 bits, the encryption key is 192 bits (actually 168 for 3DES
+since 1 of 8 bits is a parity bit), has passed 1.2 Mbytes of data in
+7149 packets, was added 4593 seconds ago, first used
+3858 seconds ago and has been idle for 23 seconds.

+The add and use times are awkward, displayed in seconds since machine
+start. It would be better to display them in seconds before now for
+human readability.
