FIELD DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE
# This is the security association index number. 1
Name This field displays the identification name for this VPN policy. This name is
unique for each connection where the secure gateway IP address is a
public static IP address.
When the secure gateway IP address is 0.0.0.0 (as discussed in the last
chapter), there may be different connections using this same VPN rule. In
this case, the name is followed by the remote IP address as configured in
Menu 27.1.1. – IPSec Setup. Individual connections using the same VPN
rule may be terminated without affecting other connections using the same
rule.

Encap. This field displays Tunnel mode or Transport mode. See previous for
discussion. Tunnel
IPSec
Algorithm This field displays the security protocols used for an SA. ESP provides
confidentiality and integrity of data by encrypting the data and
encapsulating it into IP packets. Encryption methods include 56-bit DES
and 168-bit 3DES. NULL denotes a tunnel without encryption.
An incoming SA may have an AH in addition to ESP. The Authentication
Header provides strong integrity and authentication by adding
authentication information to IP packets. This authentication information is
calculated using header and payload data in the IP packet. This provides
an additional level of security. AH choices are MD5 (default - 128 bits)
and SHA -1(160 bits).
Both AH and ESP increase Prestige processing requirements and
communications latency (delay).
