NETGEAR fvs114 manual Value in its Authentication Algorithm Key Out field

Reference Manual for the ProSafe VPN Firewall FVS114

Table 6-1.	VPN Manual Policy Configuration Fields
Field		Description
Authentication Algorithm		If you enable AH, then select the authentication algorithm:
		• MD5 — the default
		• SHA1 — more secure
		Enter the keys in the fields provided. For MD5, the keys should be 16
		characters. For SHA-1, the keys should be 20 characters.
Key - In		Enter the keys.
		• For MD5, the keys should be 16 characters.
		• For SHA-1, the keys should be 20 characters.
		Any value is acceptable, provided the remote VPN endpoint has the same
		value in its Authentication Algorithm Key - Out field.
Key - Out		Enter the keys in the fields provided.
		• For MD5, the keys should be 16 characters.
		• For SHA-1, the keys should be 20 characters.
		Any value is acceptable, provided the remote VPN endpoint has the same
		value in its Authentication Algorithm Key - In field.
Encapsulated Security		ESP provides security for the payload (data) sent through the VPN tunnel.
Payload (ESP) Configuration		Generally, you will want to enable both encryption and authentication.
		when you use ESP. Two ESP modes are available:
		• Plain ESP encryption
		• ESP encryption with authentication
		These settings must match the remote VPN endpoint.
SPI - Incoming		Enter a hexadecimal value (3 - 8 chars). Any value is acceptable, provided
		the remote VPN endpoint has the same value in its Outgoing SPI field.
SPI - Outgoing		Enter a hexadecimal value (3 - 8 chars). Any value is acceptable, provided
		the remote VPN endpoint has the same value in its Incoming SPI field.
Enable Encryption		Use this check box to enable or disable ESP Encryption.
Encryption Algorithm		If you enable ESP Encryption, then select the Encryption Algorithm:
		• DES — the default
		• 3DES — more secure
Key - In		Enter the key in the fields provided.
		• For DES, the key should be eight characters.
		• For 3DES, the key should be 24 characters.
		Any value is acceptable, provided the remote VPN endpoint has the same
		value in its Encryption Algorithm Key - Out field.
Key - Out		Enter the key in the fields provided.
		• For DES, the key should be eight characters.
		• For 3DES, the key should be 24 characters.
		Any value is acceptable, provided the remote VPN endpoint has the same
		value in its Encryption Algorithm Key - In field.
