    35. 

  35. 

  36. <I>Barf</I>
    37. 

  37. 

  38. outputs (on standard output) a collection of debugging information
    39. 

  39. (contents of files, selections from logs, etc.)
    40. 

  40. related to the IPsec encryption/authentication system.
    41. 

  41. It is primarily a convenience for remote debugging,
    42. 

  42. a single command which packages up (and labels) all information
    43. 

  43. that might be relevant to diagnosing a problem in IPsec.
    44.

    45.

  46. <I>Look</I>
    47. 

  47. 

  48. outputs a minimal subset of this,
    49. 

  49. intended as a quick look at current connections and related information,
    50. 

  50. in a somewhat less self-explanatory format optimized for terseness.
    51. 

  51. <P>

  53. The
    54. 

  54. <B>--short</B>

  56. option limits the length of
    57. 

  57. the log portion of
    58. 

  58. <I>barf</I>'s
    59. 

    60. 

  60. output, which can otherwise be extremely voluminous
    61. 

  61. if debug logging is turned on.

  66. censors its output,
    67. 

  67. replacing keys
    68. 

  68. and secrets with brief checksums to avoid revealing sensitive information.
    69. 

  69. <I>Look</I>
    70. 

  70. 

  71. output does not contain such information.
    72. 

  72. <P>
    73. 

  73. 

  74. Beware that the output of both commands is aimed at humans,
    75. 

  75. not programs,
    76. 

  76. and the output format is subject to change without warning.
