.SH "NAME" ipsec-up - Establish a connection

.SH "SYNOPSIS"

.HP 216u

ipsec up
connection
[--ctlsocket /run/pluto/pluto.ctl]

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP ipsec up connection operation asks pluto to establish a connection specified in internal database.

.PP To add and up a connection with single command use ipsec start connection. These both have same effect as configuration option auto=start on startup.

.PP Note: you might also need to run ipsec rereadsecrets when your new connection uses pre-shared key (PSK) authentication, authby=secret because secrets keys are only being read at startup.
