Hello!

I'd like to implement the equivalent of commands "strongswan up 
<connectionname>"
and "strongswan down <connectionname>" using SMP plugin. To do that I'm sending
these messages to charon:

1) strongswan up:

<message type="request" id="1">
    <control>
        <ikesainitiate>department1</ikesainitiate>
    </control>
</message>
<message type="request" id="2">
    <control>
        <childsainitiate>department1</childsainitiate>
    </control>
</message>

2) strongswan down:

<message type="request" id="3">
    <control>
        <childsaterminate>1</childsaterminate>
    </control>
</message>
<message type="request" id="4">
    <control>
        <ikesaterminate>1</ikesaterminate>
    </control>
</message>

It works fine, but I'm still not sure is that the complete equivalent? And I've 
got
a couple of questions:

1) What happens to strongSwan server if my program would be terminated 
unexpectedly
before sending the second message? I mean:

- "childsaterminate" was sent and processed successfully;
- program's going to send "ikesaterminate";
- program dies before sending;
- ???

2) Are these SMP messages synchronous? Do they guarantee that the current action
(IKE/child initiation or termination) is complete (with or without error)?

Thanks in advance,
