RE: Test tools for IKE



Title: RE: Test tools for IKE

Check out the "Researched National Institute of Standards and Technology" website for IPsec interoperability test tools and platform support.   

http://csrc.nist.gov/ipsec/

Contact NIST and requested copies of the following Linux code:
- Cerberus - adds IP communications security to the system
- PlutoPlus - conducts secret key negotiations and management

Hopefully you will have better luck than I did.  The code is currently not available via WWW download so you must request a distribution of the NIST IPsec Reference Implementation (Cerberus) and IKE Reference Implementation (PlutoPlus) on a floppy.  I put my request in two months age; I received confirmation of my request but have yet to receive the software.

Subject:        Test tools for IKE

Hi,
We're working on an IKE implementation and trying to do interoperability
testing.
Does anyone know of any test tools which we can test our IKE
implementation against?

It would be great if we could find a tool which would allow us to
monitor the skeyid{_*}
creation process on the remote side to compare against our side.

Does such a tool exist?
How does one verify the correctness of their skeyid's? (other than
attempting an IKE negotiation
with an off the shelf product)

Thanks
Jim
