<p class=MsoNormal>Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am using the plugin load-tester with strongswan-4.6.3,
against a remote host. My configuration is<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>initiators = 1 (1 thread)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>iterations = 10 (10 tunnels)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>delay = 500 ms (initiating an IKE SA every 500 ms)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>(my <i>strongswan.conf</i> file is attached)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I noticed that about 50 ms are necessary to establish an
IPSec tunnel. However when I put a delay of 20 ms, an IKE SA wasn't initiated
every 20 ms. IKE SAs are initiated one after the other.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>What about the real significance of the parameter
"delay" ? Is it relevant only from a certain value ?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
