    Summary: StrongSWAN IPSEC implementation
    Description: 
    StrongSWAN is a free implementation of IPSEC & IKE for Linux.  IPSEC is
    the Internet Protocol Security and uses strong cryptography to provide
    both authentication and encryption services.  These services allow you
    to build secure tunnels through untrusted networks.  Everything passing
    through the untrusted net is encrypted by the ipsec gateway machine and
    decrypted by the gateway at the other end of the tunnel.  The resulting
    tunnel is a virtual private network or VPN.
    
    This package contains the service and userland tools for setting up
    StrongSWAN on a freeswan enabled kernel.
