Digest 5.

SHA1: Request AH encapsulation and authenticate using Secure Hashing Algorithm 1.

3.ESP Authentication Scheme: Select which ESP message authentication to propose:

NONE: Perform no message authentication.

MD5: Perform message authentication using Message Digest 5.

SHA1: Perform message authentication using Secure Hashing Algorithm 1.

4.ESP Encryption Scheme: Select the encryption method (if any) to propose:

DES: Use ESP encapsulation and 56-bit encryption.

3DES: Use ESP encapsulation and three 56-bit keys to produce 168-bit encryption.

NULL: ESP encapsulation, but no data encryption. ESP encapsulation enables verification of the source, but data is sent in the clear to increase throughput.

NONE: No ESP encapsulation and no encryption is used.

5.IP Compression Method: Select whether to propose LZS IP compression, or none.

6.Phase II Proposal Lifetime: Enter the length of time to propose, as measured in seconds, before the IPSec SA expires. The default setting is 1800 seconds. Once this lifetime is elapsed, your router will renegotiate the IKE connection.

7.Phase II Proposal Data: Enter the amount of data, as measured in kilobytes, before the IPSec SA terminates. After the specified quantity of data has been transferred, your router will renegotiate the IKE connection. If you use zero, the data quantity will be unlimited. By setting a limit on the amount of data transferred, you can reduce the risk of a key becoming compromised.

8.Click on the Save IKE Settings button to save your IKE IPSec proposal definition and return to the home screen.
