+# Libreswan IPSec tunnel monitoring with Netdata
+
+Collects bytes-in, bytes-out and uptime for all established libreswan IPSEC tunnels.
+
+The following charts are created, **per tunnel**:
+
+1.  **Uptime**
+
+-   the uptime of the tunnel
+
+2.  **Traffic**
+
+-   bytes in
+-   bytes out
+
+## Configuration
+
+Edit the `charts.d/libreswan.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
+directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata   # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
+sudo ./edit-config charts.d/libreswan.conf
+```
+
+The plugin executes 2 commands to collect all the information it needs:
+
+```sh
+ipsec whack --status
+ipsec whack --trafficstatus
+```
+
+The first command is used to extract the currently established tunnels, their IDs and their names.
+The second command is used to extract the current uptime and traffic.
+
+Most probably user `netdata` will not be able to query libreswan, so the `ipsec` commands will be denied.
+The plugin attempts to run `ipsec` as `sudo ipsec ...`, to get access to libreswan statistics.
+
+To allow user `netdata` execute `sudo ipsec ...`, create the file `/etc/sudoers.d/netdata` with this content:
+
+```
+netdata ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: /sbin/ipsec whack --status
+netdata ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: /sbin/ipsec whack --trafficstatus
+```
+
+Make sure the path `/sbin/ipsec` matches your setup (execute `which ipsec` to find the right path).
