example, leave the Key Lifetime as the default value of 60 minutes.

Rekeymargin field. In this example, leave the Rekeymargin as the default value of 10
minutes.

Set the maximum percentage by which the Rekeymargin should be randomly increased
to randomize rekeying intervals in the Rekeyfuzz field. The Key lifetimes for both Phase
1 and Phase 2 are dependent on these values and must be greater that the value of
Rekeymargin x (100 + Rekeyfuzz) / 100.” In this example, leave the Rekeyfuzz as the
default value of 100%.
