|
||||||
|
- libstrongswan has been modularized to attach crypto algorithms,
|
||||||
|
credential implementations (keys, certificates) and fetchers dynamically
|
||||||
|
through plugins. Existing code has been ported to plugins:
|
||||||
|
- RSA/Diffie-Hellman implementation using the GNU Multi Precision library
|
||||||
|
- X509 certificate system supporting CRLs, OCSP and attribute certificates
|
||||||
|
- Multiple plugins providing crypto algorithms in software
|
||||||
|
- CURL and OpenLDAP fetcher
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- libstrongswan gained a relational database API which uses pluggable database
|
||||||
|
providers. Plugins for MySQL and SQLite are available.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The IKEv2 keying daemon charon is more extensible. Generic plugins may provide
|
||||||
|
connection configuration, credentials and EAP methods or control the daemon.
|
||||||
|
Existing code has been ported to plugins:
|
||||||
|
- EAP-AKA, EAP-SIM, EAP-MD5 and EAP-Identity
|
||||||
|
- stroke configuration, credential and control (compatible to pluto)
|
||||||
|
- XML bases management protocol to control and query the daemon
|
||||||
|
The following new plugins are available:
|
||||||
|
- An experimental SQL configuration, credential and logging plugin on
|
||||||
|
top of either MySQL or SQLite
|
||||||
|
- A unit testing plugin to run tests at daemon startup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The authentication and credential framework in charon has been heavily
|
||||||
|
refactored to support modular credential providers, proper
|
||||||
|
CERTREQ/CERT payload exchanges and extensible authorization rules.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The framework of strongSwan Manager has envolved to the web application
|
||||||
|
framework libfast (FastCGI Application Server w/ Templates) and is usable
|
||||||
|
by other applications.
