4.5.2 Setting Up VPN Security

The WS 2000 Wireless Switch provides several different options for VPN security, all based upon encryption
key exchange:
1.
Manual Key Exchange
be used for VPN access.
A transform set is a combination of security protocols and algorithms that are applied to IPSec protected
traffic. A transform set specifies one or two IPSec security protocols (either AH, ESP, or both) and
specifies which algorithms to use with the selected security protocol. During security association (SA)
negotiation, both gateways agree to use a particular transform set to protect the data flow.
If you specify an ESP protocol in a transform set, you can specify just an ESP encryption transform or both
an ESP encryption transform and an ESP authentication transform. When a particular transform set is
used during negotiations for IPSec SAs, the entire transform set (the combination of protocols,
algorithms, and other settings) must match the transform set at the remote end of the gateway.
2.
Automatic Key Exchange

type of encryption and authentication, without specifying the keys.
3.

negotiation, and remote host or network access. IKE provides an automatic means of negotiation and
authentication for communication between two or more parties. IKE manages IPSec keys automatically
for the parties.
Each of these options requires some configuration, as described below.
