unloadipsec Command
Purpose
Unloads a crypto module from the IP Security subsystem.
Syntax
unloadipsec -c crypto_mod_name
Description
The unloadipsec command unloads a crypto module from the IP Security subsystem. The unloadipsec command can be used when a crypto module is no longer being used or when a crypto module is to be replaced with a newer version.
A crypto module can only be unloaded after the IP Security device is stopped. The steps for replacing a crypto module are: change the IP Security device to the defined state; unload the old crypto module using this command; uninstall the old module and install the new module, and bring the IP Security device back to the available state.
Flags
