.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
performs cryptographic key exchanges that are secure against quantum-computers
|
||||
and outputs the keys.
|
||||
These keys can then be passed to various services such as wireguard or other
|
||||
vpn services as pre-shared-keys to achieve security against attackers with
|
||||
quantum computers.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
This is a research project and quantum computers are not thought to become
|
||||
practical in less than ten years.
|
||||
If you are not specifically tasked with developing post-quantum secure systems,
|
||||
you probably do not need this tool.
|
||||
.Ss COMMANDS
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
||||
.It Ar keygen private-key <file-path> public-key <file-path>
|
||||
Generate a keypair to use in the exchange command later.
|
||||
Send the public-key file to your communication partner and keep the private-key
|
||||
file secret!
|
||||
.It Ar exchange private-key <file-path> public-key <file-path> [ OPTIONS ] PEERS
|
||||
Start a process to exchange keys with the specified peers.
|
||||
You should specify at least one peer.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
It's
|
||||
.Ar OPTIONS
|
||||
are as follows:
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
||||
.It Ar listen <ip>[:<port>]
|
||||
Instructs
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
to listen on the specified interface and port.
|
||||
By default
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
will listen on all interfaces and select a random port.
|
||||
.It Ar verbose
|
||||
Extra logging.
|
||||
.El
|
||||
.El
|
||||
.Ss PEER
|
||||
Each
|
||||
.Ar PEER
|
||||
is defined as follows:
|
||||
.Qq peer public-key <file-path> [endpoint <ip>[:<port>]] [preshared-key <file-path>] [outfile <file-path>] [wireguard <dev> <peer> <extra_params>]
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Providing a
|
||||
.Ar PEER
|
||||
instructs
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
to exchange keys with the given peer and write the resulting PSK into the given
|
||||
output file.
|
||||
You must either specify the outfile or wireguard output option.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The parameters of
|
||||
.Ar PEER
|
||||
are as follows:
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
||||
.It Ar endpoint <ip>[:<port>]
|
||||
Specifies the address where the peer can be reached.
|
||||
This will be automatically updated after the first successful key exchange with
|
||||
the peer.
|
||||
If this is unspecified, the peer must initiate the connection.
|
||||
.It Ar preshared-key <file-path>
|
||||
You may specify a pre-shared key which will be mixed into the final secret.
|
||||
.It Ar outfile <file-path>
|
||||
You may specify a file to write the exchanged keys to.
|
||||
If this option is specified,
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
will write a notification to standard out every time the key is updated.
|
||||
.It Ar wireguard <dev> <peer> <extra_params>
|
||||
This allows you to directly specify a wireguard peer to deploy the
|
||||
pre-shared-key to.
|
||||
You may specify extra parameters you would pass to
|
||||
.Qq wg set
|
||||
besides the preshared-key parameter which is used by
|
||||
.Nm .
|
||||
This makes it possible to add peers entirely from
|
||||
.Nm .
