NAME

6       ipsec_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ipsec processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ipsec processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The ipsec processes execute with the  ipsec_t  SELinux  type.  You  can
13       check  if  you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14       with the -Z qualifier.
15
16       For example:
17
18       ps -eZ | grep ipsec_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The ipsec_t SELinux type can be entered via the ipsec_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the ipsec_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/libexec/strongswan/.*,                 /usr/libexec/strongimcv/.*,
28       /usr/lib/ipsec/spi,     /usr/lib/ipsec/pluto,    /usr/lib/ipsec/eroute,
29       /usr/libexec/ipsec/spi, /usr/libexec/ipsec/pluto, /usr/lib/ipsec/klips‐
30       debug,      /usr/libexec/ipsec/eroute,      /usr/libexec/ipsec/addconn,
31       /usr/libexec/ipsec/klipsdebug
32

PROCESS TYPES

34       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35       system
36
37       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
40       ipsec policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ipsec  pro‐
41       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
42
43       The following process types are defined for ipsec:
44
45       ipsec_t, ipsec_mgmt_t
46
47       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a ipsec_t can be used to make the process
48       type ipsec_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to  permissive
49       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
50       ated.
51
52

BOOLEANS

54       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access  required.   ipsec
55       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
56       manipulate the policy and run ipsec with the tightest access possible.
57
58

PORT TYPES

171       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
172
173       You can see the types associated with a port  by  using  the  following
174       command:
175
176       semanage port -l
177
178
179       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these ports.
180       SELinux ipsec policy is very flexible allowing  users  to  setup  their
181       ipsec processes in as secure a method as possible.
182
183       The following port types are defined for ipsec:
184
185
186       ipsecnat_port_t
187
188
189
190       Default Defined Ports:
191                 tcp 4500
192                 udp 4500
193

MANAGED FILES

195       The SELinux process type ipsec_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
196       lowing file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for  these
197       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

315       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
316       type.
317
318       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
319
320       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
321       SELinux  ipsec  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup their
322       ipsec processes in as secure a method as possible.
323
324       EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
325
326
327       ipsec policy stores data with multiple  different  file  context  types
328       under  the  /var/run/pluto  directory.   If you would like to store the
329       data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to  cre‐
330       ate an equivalence mapping.  If you wanted to store this data under the
331       /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
332
333       semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/pluto /srv/pluto
334       restorecon -R -v /srv/pluto
335
336       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
337
338       SELinux defines the file context types for the ipsec, if you wanted  to
339       store  files  with  these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
340       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
341       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
342
343       semanage fcontext -a -t ipsec_var_run_t '/srv/myipsec_content(/.*)?'
344       restorecon -R -v /srv/myipsec_content
345
346       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
347       match multiple files.
348
349       The following file types are defined for ipsec:
350
351
352
