Chapter 12 – Configuring An IPsec VPN

Note: When connections become active, Openswan assigns them to ipsec interfaces. You must plan on these interfaces being the source of incoming traffic in firewall rules.

The NAT Traversal fields enable and disable this feature. Enable Nat Traversal if this router originates the VPN connection and the VPN connection passes through a firewall.

The Syslog logging level fields determines the facility and priority of log messages generated by Openswan.
