6.11.3 Configuring IKE Key Settings
The Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is an IPsec standard protocol used to ensure security for VPN
negotiation and remote host or network access. IKE provides an automatic means of negotiation and
authentication for communication between two or more parties. In essence, IKE manages IPSec keys
automatically for the parties.
To configure IKE key settings for the AP-5131:
1. Select Network Configuration -> WAN -> VPN from the AP-5131 menu tree.
2. Refer to the VPN Tunnel Config field, select the Auto (IKE) Key Exchange radio button
and click the IKE Settings button.
