Description
The encryption key for the outbound policy. The length of the key depends on
the selected encryption algorithm:
• 3DES. Enter 24 characters.
• None. Key is not applicable.
• DES. Enter 8 characters.
• AES-128. Enter 16 characters.
• AES-192. Enter 24 characters.
• AES-256. Enter 32 characters.
The Security Parameters Index (SPI) for the outbound policy. Enter a
hexadecimal value between 3 and 8 characters (for example, 0x1234).
From the drop-down list, select one of the following two algorithms to be used in
the VPN header for the authentication process:
• SHA-1. Hash algorithm that produces a 160-bit digest. This is the default
setting.
• MD5. Hash algorithm that produces a 128-bit digest.
The integrity key for the inbound policy. The length of the key depends on the
selected integrity algorithm:
• MD5. Enter 16 characters.
• SHA-1. Enter 20 characters.
The integrity key for the outbound policy. The length of the key depends on the
selected integrity algorithm:
• MD5. Enter 16 characters.
• SHA-1. Enter 20 characters.
The lifetime of the security association (SA) is the period or the amount of
transmitted data after which the SA becomes invalid and needs to be
renegotiated. From the drop-down list, select how the SA lifetime is specified:
• Seconds. In the SA Lifetime field, enter a period in seconds. The minimum
value is 300 seconds. The default setting is 3600 seconds.
• KBytes. In the SA Lifetime field, enter a number of kilobytes. The minimum
value is 1920000 KB.
From the drop-down list, select one of the following five algorithms to negotiate
the security association (SA):
• 3DES. Triple DES. This is the default algorithm.
• None. No encryption algorithm.
• DES. Data Encryption Standard (DES).
• AES-128. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with a 128-bit key size.
• AES-192. AES with a 192-bit key size.
• AES-256. AES with a 256-bit key size.
