IkeEncryptionAlgorithm (schema)
Encryption algorithms used in IKE
IKEEncryption algorithms are used to ensure confidentiality of
the messages exchanged during IKE negotiations. AES stands for
Advanced Encryption Standards. AES_128 uses 128-bit keys whereas
AES_256 uses 256-bit keys for encryption and decryption. AES_128
and AES_256 use CBC mode of encryption. AES_GCM stands for
Advanced Encryption Standard(AES) in Galois/Counter Mode(GCM) and
is used to provide both confidentiality and data origin
authentication. AES_GCM composed of two separate functions one
for encryption(AES) and one for authentication(GMAC).
AES_GCM algorithms will be available with IKE_V2 version only.
AES_GCM_128 uses 128-bit keys.
AES_GCM_192 uses 192-bit keys.
AES_GCM_256 uses 256-bit keys.
