IPSEC-STOP(8)

✨ IPSEC-STOP(8) ✨

okay bestie, so you know the ipsec service that's been running this whole time? yeah. we're shutting her down. this is ipsec-stop, and she is not here to play. this page is the ipsec-stop(8) manual, and honestly it's giving "one job, does it perfectly" 💅

🛑 NAME 🛑

ipsec-stop — stop the ipsec service via initsystem 💀✨

like. that's it. that's the whole thing.

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

ipsec stop

^(that's the whole invocation. no flags, no drama, no notes.) 💖

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

ipsec stop stops the ipsec service via initsystem tools.

that's the official tea ☕ — she hands the "please stop" over to whatever initsystem tooling your box is running, and lets the init system do the actual stopping. main character energy, but on the init system's terms 🫶

no cap: ipsec stop is the proper way to bring the service down. don't go rogue and start killing things yourself, bestie 😭
