set pfs [group1 | group2]

Use the set pfs command to choose the type of perfect forward secrecy (if any) that will be required during
IPSec negotiation of security associations for this crypto map. Use the no form of this command to require
no PFS.
Syntax Description
group1 Requires IPSec to use Dif fie-Hellman Grou p 1 (768-bit modu lus) exchange dur ing
IPSec SA key generation.
group2 Requires IPSec to use Diffie-Hellman Grou p 2 (1024 -b it mo dulu s) exchange
during IPSec SA key generation.
Default Values
By default, no PFS will be used during IPSec SA key generation.
Applicable Platforms
This command applies to the NetVanta 300, 1000R, 2000, 3000, 4000, and 5000 and Total Access 900
Series units.
Command History
Release 4.1 Command was introduced.
Functional Notes
If left at the default setting, no perfect forward secrecy (PFS) will be used during IPSec SA key generation.
If PFS is specified, then the specified Diffie-H ellman Group exchange will be used for the initial and all
subsequent key generation, thus providing no data linkage between prior keys and future keys.
Usage Examples
The following example specifies use of the Diffie-Hellman Group 1 exchange during IPSec SA key
generation:
(config-crypto-map)#set pfs group 1
