{

Pre-shared key—Two IKE peers use the pre-configured shared key for identity authentication.

{

CA—Two IKE peers use digital certificates issued by the CA for identity authentication.

DH algorithm

The DH algorithm is a public key algorithm with which two peers can exchange keying material
and then use the material to calculate the shared keys. IVM supports the following DH algorithms

for ISAKMP SA negotiation:

{

DH Group 1—768-bit Diffie-Hellman group.

{

DH Group 2—1024-bit Diffie-Hellman group.

{

DH Group 5—1536-bit Diffie-Hellman group.

{

DH Group 14—2048-bit Diffie-Hellman group.

ISAKMP SA lifetime

The ISAKMP SA has a specified lifetime and is updated periodically. After the ISAKMP SA lifetime

expires, the IKE peers uses the DH algorithm to calculate a new key. Since the DH computation can

be time-consuming for low end devices, HP recommends that you set the ISAKMP SA lifetime to no
less than 600 seconds.
You can query, view, add, modify, and delete IKE proposals.
