IPSec A framework of open standards that provides data confidentiality, data integrity,
and data authentication between participating peers. IPSec provides these
security services at the IP layer. IPSec uses IKE to handle negotiation of
protocols and algorithms based on local policy and to generate th e encryption
and authentication keys to be used by IPSec. IPSec can be used to protect one or
more data flows between a pair of hosts, between a pair of security ga teways, or
between a security gateway and a host.
IPSec policy In SDM, an IPSec policy is a named set of crypto map associated with a VPN
connection.
IPSec rule A rule used to specify which traffic is protected by IPSec.
IRB Integrated Routing and Bridging. IRB allows you to route a given
protocol between routed interfaces and bridge groups within a single
switch router.
ISAKMP The Internet Security Association Key Management Protocol is the ba sis for
IKE. ISAKMP authenticates communicating peers, creates and manages
security associations, and defines key generation techniques.
K

key exchange The method by which two or more parties exchange encryption keys. The IKE
protocol provides one such method.
key lifetime An attribute of a key pair that specifies a time span, during which the certificate
