[strongSwan] Parameters used for phase 1 and phase 2 re-negotiation

Hi,

I am a bit confused with the parameters "ikelifetime" and "lifetime". I
believe "ikelifetime" re-negotiates phase 1 according to the value we
assign it. What about "lifetime"? The strongSwan wiki says "how long a
particular instance of a connection (a set of encryption/authentication
keys for user packets) should last, from successful negotiation to expiry".
So is this also for phase 1?
In that case, what paramater should I use to re-negotiate phase 2?
Sorry if these questions seem silly :(

Thanks and regards,
Meera
