[strongSwan] Notification

[ccsalway]

You can see the log messages in /var/log/syslog.  You can configure the logging further to create custom logs [1]

For no proposal, you should set CFG to 3

My config looks like the following

$ /etc/strongswan.d/charon-systemd.conf 
charon-systemd {
  filelog {
    /var/log/strongswan.log {
        time_format = %b %e %T
        flush_line = yes
        default = -1
        cfg = 5
    }
  }
}

And don’t forget to handle log rotation

$ /etc/logrotate.d/strongswan
/var/log/strongswan.log
{
  su root adm
  rotate 4
  daily
  missingok
  notifempty
  compress
  delaycompress
  copytruncate
}
