New version of ike-scan (IPsec IKE scanner) available - v1.5.1



ike-scan v1.5.1 has been released.  There are many changes from the last
official release which was v1.2.  In summary, the changes are:

Multiple Vendor ID payloads may be specified; d) ike-scan will display any Vendor ID payload that it receives from the VPN servers;
e) Ability to specify multiple custom transforms;
f) Ability to specify key-length for variable length ciphers (e.g. AES);
g) Support for Aggressive Mode in addition to Main Mode;
h) UDP packet-sending engine improvements which allow more accurate packet timing; and
i) Created ike-scan man page.
