45.5 Manual Setup
You only configure Menu 27.1.1.2 – Manual Setup when you select Manual in the Key
Management field in Menu 27.1.1 – IPSec Setup. Manual key management is useful if you
have problems with IKE key management.
45.5.1 Active Protocol
This field is a combination of mode and security protocols used for the VPN. See the Web
Configurator part on VPN for more information on these parameters.

DESCRIPTION
You must choose a key group for phase 1 IKE setup. DH1 (default) refers to Diffie-
Hellman Group 1 a 768 bit random number. DH2 refers to Diffie-Hellman Group 2 a
1024 bit (1Kb) random number.
Press [SPACE BAR] to choose from ESP or AH and then press [ENTER]. See earlier
for a discussion of these protocols.
Press [SPACE BAR] to choose from NULL, DES, 3DES or AES and then press
[ENTER]. Select NULL to set up a tunnel without encryption.
Press [SPACE BAR] to choose from SHA1 or MD5 and then press [ENTER].
Define the length of time before an IPSec Security Association automatically
renegotiates in this field. It may range from 60 to 3,000,000 seconds (almost 35 days).
Press [SPACE BAR] to choose from Tunnel mode or Transport mode and then press
[ENTER]. See earlier for a discussion of these.
Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) is disabled (None) by default in phase 2 IPSec SA
setup. This allows faster IPSec setup, but is not so secure. Press [SPACE BAR] and
choose from DH1 or DH2 to enable PFS. DH1 refers to Diffie-Hellman Group 1 a 768
bit random number. DH2 refers to Diffie-Hellman Group 2 a 1024 bit (1Kb) random
number (more secure, yet slower).
