CEP Enrollment
Cisco routers support the use of certificates for authentication, encryption, and
tamper detection by using the IP Security (IPSec) protocol. Certificate Management
System supports Cisco's PKI protocol, the Certificate Enrollment Protocol (CEP);
this protocol runs over HTTP and provides its own form of encryption. For an
overview of certificate authority support for IPSec, see the information available at
this URL:

You can issue certificates to routers and CEP-compliant Virtual Private Network
(VPN) clients using Certificate Management System. Routers use certificates to
authenticate each other and to establish an encrypted IPSec channel between them;
all TCP/IP communication passes through this encrypted channel.
