   16: .SH DESCRIPTION
   17: swanctl is a cross-platform command line utility to configure, control and
   18: monitor the strongSwan IKE daemon. It is a replacement for the aging
   19: .BR starter ,
   20: .B ipsec
   21: and
   22: .B stroke
   23: tools.
   24: 
   25: swanctl uses a configuration file called
   26: .BR swanctl.conf (5)
   27: to parse configurations and credentials. Private keys, certificates and other
   28: PKI related credentials are read from specific directories.
   29: 
   30: To communicate with the IKE daemon, swanctl uses the VICI protocol, the
   31: Versatile IKE Configuration Interface. This stable interface is usable by
   32: other tools and is often preferable than scripting swanctl and parsing its
   33: output.
