What is Internet Key Exchange (IKE)?
• Internet Key Exchange is a negotiation and key exchange protocol specified by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). An IKE Security Association (SA) automatically negotiates encryption and authentication keys. With IKE, and initial exchange authenticates the VPN session and automatically negotiates keys that will be used to pass IP traffic. • What is IPSec? • Internet Protocol Security is a robust VPN standard that covers authentication and encryption of data traffic over the Internet. VPN technology using IPSec encrypts outgoing data and decrypts incoming data. IPSec has two encryption modes: transport and tunnel. Transport mode encrypts the packet data but leaves the header unencrypted. The more secure the tunnel mode encrypts both the header and the data. At the receiving end, an IPSec-compliant device decrypts each packet. For IPSec to work, the sending and receiving devices must share a key.
