Annotation of embedaddon/strongswan/testing/tests/ikev2/reauth-mbb-revoked/description.txt, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       misho       1: This scenario tests <b>make-before-break reauthentication</b> using overlapping
                      2: IKE_SAs by setting the <i>make_before_break</i> strongswan.conf option. The
                      3: initiator <b>carol</b> reauthenticates the IKE_SA with host <b>moon</b> using
                      4: <b>ikelifetime=10s</b>, but does not close the old IKE_SA before the replacement
                      5: CHILD_SA is in place. A constant ping from <b>carol</b> to client <b>alice</b>
                      6: hiding in the subnet behind <b>moon</b> tests if the CHILD_SA works during the
                      7: whole procedure.
                      8: <p/>
                      9: Because the responder is always able to install CHILD_SAs before the initiator
                     10: is, some traffic sent by the responder over such a CHILD_SA might get dropped by
                     11: the initiator (until it also installed the CHILD_SA).  This is particularly
                     12: problematic if OCSP/CRL checks are delayed or if they can also be done via the
                     13: IPsec tunnel once it's established.  Therefore, online OCSP/CRL checks are
                     14: suspended during the reauthentication and done afterwards. This is verified here
                     15: by revoking the responder's certificate after the SA got initially established.
