Managing Switches

NOTE:

IPsec policies must be unique. The unique key for a policy includes the fields Source

Address, Source Port, Source Prefix Length, Destination Address, Destination Port, Destination Prefix

Length, Protocol, ICMP IPv6 Type (if specified), and Direction. No two IPsec associations can

contain duplicate values in these nine fields.

the IPsec policy, click Cancel.
