IKE Initiator. Is there CLI application that acts as an IKE Responder? If no, I
am thinking to design a stand-alone application (which will act as a Responder)
that will communicate with the IKEv2 Charon daemon. Will it be an issue if I
will do the followings? </font></span></div><font face="Times New Roman">
