Perfect Forward Secrecy	Windows supports PFS for
(PFS)	keys only (PFS for session
	keys) and supports PFS for
	keys in conjunction with
	PFS for all identities (PFS
	for master keys).
	Specify PFS for master keys
	in the Key Exchange
	Settings dialog box. (To
	navigate to the Key
	Exchange Setting dialog
	box, select the General tab
	in the Policy Properties
	dialog box, then select
	Advanced settings.)

HP-UX does not support PFS for session keys. HP-UX supports only PFS for master keys.

Specify PFS for master keys using the-maxqm 1 argument in the

ipsec_config add ike command.

See “Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS)” (page 43) for more information.

IKE SA Proposals	Specify it in the General
	parameters for a policy. You
	can configure multiple IKE
	SA proposals and their
	preference order.

You can specify the parameters for one IKE SA proposal in an IKE policy, using the -encryption,-hash, and -group arguments in an

ipsec_config add ike

command.

See “IKE Parameter Selection” (page 42) for additional information.

Mirrored Filters

Microsoft filters can be mirrored (bi-directional) or not mirrored (uni-directional). If the filter is mirrored, the filter will match IP packets with the source and destination addresses and ports reversed. For example, a filter has the following specifications:

Source address: 10.1.1.1

Destination address: 10.2.2.2
