  1. <p>The roadwarriors <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> set up a connection each
  2. to gateway <b>moon</b>. The authentication is based on <b>X.509 certificates</b>.
  3. To authorize clients, <b>moon</b> uses locally cached attribute certificates.
  4. While for <b>carol</b> a valid attribute certificate for the group <i>sales</i>
  5. is available, <b>dave</b>'s attribute certificates are either expired or
  6. do not grant permissions for the <i>sales</i> group.</p>
  7. <p>Upon the successful establishment of the IPsec tunnels, <b>leftfirewall=yes</b>

  9. In order to test both tunnel and firewall, both <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> try
  10. to ping the client <b>alice</b> behind the gateway <b>moon</b>, but dave fails
  11. to do so.</p>
