      Hi guys,

      I was wondering, is it possible to enable/disable selected IPSec tunnels from CLI (php)?

      I would like to write a script to start/stop certain VPN tunnels and I'm wondering what's the best way of doing it. I found some functions within vnc.inc file to re-start the VPN, but how about starting stoping them?

      I'll appriciate any advice and help.

        Not right from the CLI out-of-the-box, but if you look at the code in the IPsec pages and vpn.inc you might be able to hack something together. You'd have to disable it in the config, and then trigger a reload of the tunnel.
