The two ZyXEL Devices in this example cannot complete their negotiation because ZyXEL
Device B’s Local ID type is IP, but ZyXEL Device A’s Peer ID type is set to E-mail. An “ID
mismatched” message displays in the IPSEC LOG.

18.10 Pre-Shared Key

A pre-shared key identifies a communicating party during a phase 1 IKE negotiation
(see

Section 18.12 on page 288

for more on IKE phases). It is called “pre-shared” because you

have to share it with another party before you can communicate with them over a secure
connection.
