35.Dt ENC 4
36.Os
37.Sh NAME
38.Nm enc
39.Nd Encapsulating Interface
40.Sh SYNOPSIS
41To compile this driver into the kernel,
42place the following line in your
43kernel configuration file:
44.Bd -ragged -offset indent
45.Cd "device enc"
46.Ed
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48The
49.Nm
50interface is a software loopback mechanism that allows hosts or
51firewalls to filter
52.Xr ipsec 4
53traffic using any firewall package that hooks in via the
54.Xr pfil 9
55framework.
56.Pp
57The
58.Nm
59interface allows an administrator to see incoming and outgoing packets
60before and after they will be or have been processed by
61.Xr ipsec 4
62via
63.Xr tcpdump 1 .
64.Pp
65The
66.Dq Li enc0
67interface inherits all IPsec traffic.
68Thus all IPsec traffic can be filtered based on
69.Dq Li enc0 ,
70and all IPsec traffic could be seen by invoking
71.Xr tcpdump 1
72on the
73.Dq Li enc0
74interface.
75.Pp
76What can be seen with
77.Xr tcpdump 1
78and what will be passed on to the firewalls via the
79.Xr pfil 9
80framework can be independently controlled using the following
81.Xr sysctl 8
82variables:
83.Bl -column net.enc.out.ipsec_filter_mask 0x00000000 0x00000000
84.It Sy "Name	Defaults	Suggested"
85.It "net.enc.out.ipsec_bpf_mask	0x00000003	0x00000001"
86.It "net.enc.out.ipsec_filter_mask	0x00000001	0x00000001"
87.It "net.enc.in.ipsec_bpf_mask	0x00000001	0x00000002"
88.It "net.enc.in.ipsec_filter_mask	0x00000001	0x00000002"
89.El
90.Pp
91For the incoming path a value of
92.Li 0x1
93means
94.Dq Li before stripping off the outer header
95and
96.Li 0x2
97means
98.Dq Li after stripping off the outer header .
99For the outgoing path
100.Li 0x1
101means
102.Dq Li with only the inner header
103and
104.Li 0x2
105means
106.Dq Li with outer and inner headers .
107.Bd -literal
108incoming path                                          |------|
109---- IPsec processing ---- (before) ---- (after) ----> |      |
110                                                       | Host |
111<--- IPsec processing ---- (after) ----- (before) ---- |      |
112outgoing path                                          |------|
113.Ed
114.Pp
115Most people will want to run with the suggested defaults for
116.Cm ipsec_filter_mask
117and rely on the security policy database for the outer headers.
118.Sh EXAMPLES
119To see the packets the processed via
120.Xr ipsec 4 ,
121adjust the
122.Xr sysctl 8
123variables according to your need and run:
124.Pp
125.Dl "tcpdump -i enc0"
