## Historique du projet et usages

ike-scan is Roy Hills' command-line scanner for discovering IPsec VPN endpoints that speak IKE and fingerprinting their implementations. The README frames its core jobs as discovery, fingerprinting, transform enumeration, user enumeration for some VPN systems, and offline pre-shared-key cracking through the bundled psk-crack program.

### Historique du projet

The project grew out of NTA Monitor research into UDP retransmission backoff fingerprinting. Roy Hills' 2003 white paper explains the observation that many UDP services, including IKE, leave retransmission timing decisions to implementers, creating measurable patterns that can identify VPN products.

ike-scan v1.0 was the initial public release in the project's NEWS file. Subsequent releases expanded platform support, added Windows binaries, accumulated vendor ID and backoff fingerprints, and added psk-crack for aggressive-mode pre-shared-key material captured by ike-scan.

Version 1.9 marked a major feature expansion: IKEv2 packet support, NAT traversal, source IP spoofing on raw-socket systems, stdin dictionaries for psk-crack, Vendor ID fingerprinting, and improved pseudo-random packet generation. Version 1.9.4 moved development from an internal SVN repository to GitHub.

### Historique d'adoption

ike-scan became a standard package for VPN assessment work because it targets the exposed UDP/500 and UDP/4500 surfaces that often sit at network borders. The input metadata shows packaging in Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, MacPorts, and Nix, and the README documents builds on Linux, BSDs, Solaris, macOS, Cygwin, and several older Unix systems.

### Modes d'utilisation

Operators use ike-scan to send IKE phase-1 probes to one or many targets, list responding hosts, inspect transform support, collect Vendor ID payloads, and optionally measure retransmission backoff with --showbackoff. In aggressive mode, --pskcrack output can feed psk-crack for dictionary or brute-force testing of captured pre-shared-key hashes.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

The package is significant because it packages a specific security-research technique, not just a generic network scanner. Its data files, including ike-backoff-patterns and ike-vendor-ids, are part of the value: they turn timing behavior and vendor payloads into repeatable fingerprints that can be updated as products change.

### Chronologie

- 2003: UDP backoff fingerprinting white paper describes ike-scan as the example program.
- v1.0: Initial public release supports Debian, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD builds.
- v1.7: psk-crack and aggressive-mode PSK capture support are added.
- v1.8: Vendor ID and UDP backoff pattern databases expand to 135 vendor IDs and 29 backoff patterns.
- v1.9: IKEv2, NAT traversal, Vendor ID fingerprinting, and stdin dictionaries for psk-crack are added.
- 2013: v1.9.4 moves development from internal SVN to GitHub.

### Related projects

- ike-scan sits beside packet tools such as tcpdump and broader scanners such as Nmap, but its closest related artifact is its own UDP backoff fingerprinting paper. Its psk-crack companion makes it part scanner and part focused IPsec assessment toolkit.
