  security/racoon has been removed.  You should migrate to its
  replacement, security/ipsec-tools.  No configuration changes will
  be required.

  The default configuration file location has changed for ipsec-tools.
  You will need to move your racoon configuration files to the new
  location /usr/local/etc/racoon.  Alternatively, add this line in
  rc.conf to continue using the old location:

  racoon_flags="-f /usr/local/etc"
