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).

None

When you have completed this menu, press [ENTER] at the prompt “Press ENTER to Confirm…” to save
your configuration, or press [ESC] at any time to cancel.
