* Specifying a Client Network Interface
42
At boot time the network interfaces to use will by default be
43
automatically detected. If this should result in incorrect
44
interfaces, edit the DEVICE setting in the
45
"/etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf" file. (The default setting is
46
empty, meaning it will autodetect the interface.) *If* the DEVICE
47
setting is changed, it will be necessary to update the initrd image
48
by running the command

available in the "linux-doc-*" package.
58
Note that since the network interfaces are used in the initial RAM
59
disk environment, the network interfaces *must* exist at that stage.
60
Thus, an interface can *not* be a pseudo-interface such as "br0" or
61
"tun0"; instead, only real interfaces (such as "eth0") can be used.

This can be overcome by writing a "network hook" program to create
63
an interface (see mandos-client(8mandos)) and placing it in
55
the interface (see mandos-client(8mandos)) and placing it in
64
56
"/etc/mandos/network-hooks.d", from where it will be copied into the

* Diffie-Hellman Parameters
102
On installation, a file with Diffie-Hellman parameters,
103
/etc/keys/mandos/dhparams.pem, will be generated and automatically
104
installed into the initital RAM disk image and also used by the
105
Mandos Client on boot. If different parameters are needed for
106
policy or other reasons, simply replace the existing dhparams.pem
107
file and update the initital RAM disk image.
