man ipsec.confm section IDENTITY PARSING The type and binary encoding of identity strings specified in leftid are detected as follows: · If the string value contains an equal sign (=) it is assumed to be a Distinguished Name, with RDNs separated by commas (,) or slashes (/ - the string must start with a slash to use this syntax). An attempt is made to create a binary ASN.1 encoding from this string. If that fails the type is set to KEY_ID with the literal string value adopted as encoding. · If the string value contains an @ the type depends on the position of that character: · If the string begins with @# the type is set to KEY_ID and the string following that prefix is assumed to be the hex-encoded binary value of the identity. · If the string begins with @@ the type is set to USER_FQDN and the encoding is the literal string after that prefix. · If the string begins with @ the type is set to FQDN and the encoding is the literal string after that prefix. · All remaining strings containing an @ are assumed to be of type USER_FQDN/RFC822 with the literal string value as encoding. · If the value does not contain any @ or = characters it is parsed as follows: · If the value is an empty string, or equals %any[6], 0.0.0.0, ::, or * the type is set to ID_ANY, which matches any other identity. · If the value contains a colon (:) it is assumed to be an IPv6 address. But if parsing the address and converting it to its binary encoding fails the type is set to KEY_ID and the encoding is the literal value. · For all other strings an attempt at parsing them as IPv4 addresses is made. If that fails the type is set to FQDN and the literal value is adopted as encoding (this is where domain names and simple names end up).
