IKE Authentication Method
IKE peers authenticate each other by computing and sending a keyed hash of data that
includes the pre-shared key. If the receiving peer is able to create the same hash
independently using its Pre-shared key, it knows that both peers must share the same
secret, thus authenticating the other peer. Pre-shared keys do not scale well because
each IPSec peer must be configured with the Pre-shared key of every other peer with
which it establishes a session. Enter the Pre-shared Key, and click Enable to enable the
Minimum Pre-shared Key Complexity.
Preshared Key
The digital certificate is a package that contains information such as a certificate bearer's
identity: name or IP address, the certificate's serial number, the certificate's expiration
date, and a copy of the certificate bearer's public key. The standard digital certificate
format is defined in the X.509 specification. X.509 version 3 defines the data structure
for certificates. Select the certificate from the drop-down list.
