Item Description

Phase 2

Security
Protocol

Select the security protocols to be used.

ESP: Uses the ESP protocol.

AH: Uses the AH protocol.

AH-ESP: Uses ESP first and then AH.

AH

Authentication
Algorithm

Select an authentication algorithm for AH when you select AH or AH-ESP for
Security Protocol.
Available authentication algorithms include MD5 and SHA1.

ESP
Authentication
Algorithm

Select an authentication algorithm for ESP when you select ESP or AH-ESP for
Security Protocol.
You can select MD5 or SHA1. If you do not select any authentication

algorithm, ESP performs no authentication.

IMPORTANT:

The ESP authentication algorithm and ESP encryption algorithm cannot both be

null.

ESP Encryption
Algorithm

Select an encryption algorithm for ESP when you select ESP or AH-ESP for
Security Protocol.

3DES: Uses the 3DES algorithm and a 168-bit key for encryption.

DES: Uses the DES algorithm and a 56-bit key for encryption.

AES128: Uses the AES algorithm and a 128-bit key for encryption.

AES192: Uses the AES algorithm and a 192-bit key for encryption.

AES256: Uses the AES algorithm and a 256-bit key for encryption.

If you do not select any encryption algorithm, ESP performs no encryption.

IMPORTANT:

Higher security means more complex implementation and lower speed.

DES is enough to meet general requirements. Use 3DES when high

confidentiality and security are required.

The ESP authentication algorithm and ESP encryption algorithm cannot

both be null.

Encapsulation
Mode

Select the IP packet encapsulation mode.

Tunnel: Uses the tunnel mode.

Transport: Uses the transport mode.
