Hi,

Now i am able to configure the GRE over IPSEC, but not able to establish
the tunnel. I have checked in the backend, ovs-monitor-ipsec daemon is
running , but no racoon binary is running, even the secrets and policies
were not seen in /etc/racoon/racoon.conf and /etc/racoon/psk.txt.

Here is the configuration

Host1 :

# ovs-vsctl add-br br0
# ovs-vsctl add-br br1
# ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth0
# ifconfig eth0 0 && ifconfig br0 192.168.122.7 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ifconfig br1 10.1.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ovs-vsctl add-port br1 gre1 -- set interface gre1 type=ipsec_gre
options:remote_ip=192.168.122.151 options:psk=testing


Host2 :


# ovs-vsctl add-br br0
# ovs-vsctl add-br br1
# ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth0
# ifconfig eth0 0 && ifconfig br0 192.168.122.151 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ifconfig br1 10.1.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ovs-vsctl add-port br1 gre1 -- set interface gre1 type=ipsec_gre
options:remote_ip=192.168.122.7 options:psk=testing

Can anyone help, why racoon is not being invoked ..?

Regards,
Venkata Santhosh
