Re: [strongSwan] How to bypass CRL checks?

2011-11-24 Thread Andreas Steffen
Hello Mugur,

with IKEv2 revocation checks can be easily disabled by not loading
the revocation plugin. What is not possible is to disable CRL
checking on a per connection definition basis.

Regards

Andreas

 Hello,
 Our understanding in case of setting strictcrlpolicy to **no** for charon is
 that strongSwan denies the authentication if the certificate appears in
 the fetched CRL. But,
 if the certificate does not specify an uri or if the CRL can’t be
 fetched the authentication is
 not denied.
 Can you please check our understanding?
 In case our assumption is correct we are looking for a way to set-up
 strongSwan (for some
 specific run scenarios) to bypass any CRL checks (even if
 strictcrlpolicy=no). We are looking
 for this capability even if received certificates specify an uri and the
 corresponding
 CRL can be fetched from CDP.
 Thank you

Hello Stephen,

Thanks again.

I have seen at http://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/Autoconf
that plug-ins are specified at strongSwan binary creation (./configure).

There is any way when strongSwan is load to make the choice of plug-ins to load
(e.g. revocation).

Which is the best strongSwan deployment policy when some runs need the
revocation plug-in and some other runs do not need the plug-in.

Context: Charon under Linux

Best Regards
Mugur
