Encryption
Algorithm
Select
DES
,
3DES
,
AES
or
NULL
from the drop-down list box.
When you use one of these encryption algorithms for data communications, both
the sending device and the receiving device must use the same secret key, which
can be used to encrypt and decrypt the message or to generate and verify a
message authentication code. The DES encryption algorithm uses a 56-bit key.
Triple DES (
3DES
) is a variation on
DES
that uses a 168-bit key. As a result,
3DES
is more secure than
DES
. It also requires more processing power, resulting
in increased latency and decreased throughput. This implementation of
AES
uses a 128-bit key.
AES
is faster than
3DES
.
Select
NULL
to set up a tunnel without encryption. When you select
NULL
, you
do not enter an encryption key.
Authentication
Algorithm
Select
SHA1
or
MD5
from the drop-down list box.
MD5
(Message Digest 5) and
SHA1
(Secure Hash Algorithm) are hash algorithms used to authenticate packet
data. The
SHA1
algorithm is generally considered stronger than
MD5
, but is
slower. Select
MD5
for minimal security and
SHA1
for maximum security.
