.B charon

Options for the charon IKE daemon.

.RB "" "Note" ":"
Many of the options in this section also apply to
.RB "" "charon\-cmd" ""
and
other
.RB "" "charon" ""
derivatives.  Just use their respective name (e.g.
.RB "" "charon\-cmd" ""
instead of

For many options defaults can be defined
in the

section.

.TP
.BR charon.accept_unencrypted_mainmode_messages " [no]"
Accept unencrypted ID and HASH payloads in IKEv1 Main Mode.

Some implementations send the third Main Mode message unencrypted, probably to
find the PSKs for the specified ID for authentication. This is very similar to
Aggressive Mode, and has the same security implications: A passive attacker can
sniff the negotiated Identity, and start brute forcing the PSK using the HASH
payload.

It is recommended to keep this option to no, unless you know exactly what the
implications are and require compatibility to such devices (for example, some
SonicWall boxes).
