FIELD DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE
Phase 1
Negotiation
Mode
Press [SPACE BAR] to choose from Main or Aggressive and then press
[ENTER]. See earlier for a discussion of these modes.
Main
Pre-Shared Key ZyWALL gateways authenticate an IKE VPN session by matching pre-shared
keys. Pre-shared keys are best for small networks with fewer than ten nodes.
Enter your pre-shared key here. Enter up to 31 characters. Any character
may be used, including spaces, but trailing spaces are truncated.
Encryption
Algorithm
When DES is used for data communications, both sender and receiver must
know the same secret key, which can be used to encrypt and decrypt the
message or to generate and verify a message authentication code. ZyWALL
DES encryption algorithm uses a 56-bit key.
Strong Encryption, or Triple DES (3DES), is a variation on DES that uses a
168-bit key. As a result, 3DES is more secure than DES. It also requires more
processing power, resulting in slightly increased latency and decreased
throughput.
Press [SPACE BAR] to choose from 3DES or DES and then press [ENTER].
