DESCRIPTION
VPN - IKE -
Advanced Setup
Protocol
Enter the IP protocol number whose traffic is allowed to use the VPN tunnel.
Enter 0 to allow all IP protocols to use the VPN tunnel. See
for some common IP protocols.
Enable Replay
Detection
Select this to enable replay detection. As a VPN setup is processing intensive,
the system is vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. The IPSec receiver
can detect and reject old or duplicate packets to protect against replay attacks.
Local Start Port
End
Enter the port number or range of port numbers in the local network whose traffic
is allowed to use the VPN tunnel. Enter 0 in both fields to allow all port numbers in
the local network to use the VPN tunnel. See
common port numbers.
Remote Start Port
End
Enter the port number or range of port numbers in the remote network whose
traffic is allowed to use the VPN tunnel. Enter 0 in both fields to allow all port
numbers in the remote network to use the VPN tunnel. See
for some common port numbers.
Phase 1
Negotiation Mode
Select the negotiation mode for the IKE SA.
Main
is more secure than
Aggressive
. The ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec router must use the same
negotiation mode.
Pre-Shared Key
Type the pre-shared key the IKE SA uses. The ZyXEL Device and remote IPSec
router must use the same pre-shared key. If the keys are different, the ZyXEL
Device receives a “PYLD_MALFORMED” (payload malformed) packet.
You can use 8-31 ASCII characters or 16-62 hexadecimal ("0-9", "A-F")
characters. You must precede a hexadecimal key with a "0x” (zero x), which is
not counted as part of the 16-62 characters. For example, in
"0x0123456789ABCDEF", “0x” denotes that the key is hexadecimal and
“0123456789ABCDEF” is the key itself.
Encryption
Algorithm
Select one of the following encryption algorithms for the IKE SA. The algorithms
are listed in order from weakest to strongest.
Data Encryption Standard (
DES
) is a widely used (but breakable) method of data
encryption. It applies a 56-bit key to each 64-bit block of data.
Triple DES (
3DES
) is a variant of DES. It iterates three times with three separate
keys, effectively tripling the strength of DES.
Advanced Encryption Standard (
AES
) is a newer method of data encryption that
also uses a secret key. AES applies a 128-bit key to 128-bit blocks of data.
Select
NULL
to set up a VPN tunnel without encryption.
Authentication
Algorithm
Select one of the following authentication algorithms for the IKE SA. The
algorithms are listed in order from weakest to strongest.
Message Digest 5 (
MD5
) produces a 128-bit digest to authenticate packets.
Secure Hash Algorithm (
SHA1
) produces a 160-bit digest to authenticate
packets.
SA Life Time
(Seconds)
Enter the length of time before the ZyXEL Device automatically renegotiates the
IKE SA. It may range from 60 to 3,000,000 seconds (almost 35 days).
A low value increases security by forcing the two VPN gateways to update the
encryption and authentication keys. However, if every time the IKE SA is
renegotiated, any users trying to establish IPSec SA experience delays. (Existing
IPSec SA are not affected.)
