Chapter 3 Configuring HP-UX IPSec

This chapter describes how to configure HP-UX IPSec, including preshared key configuration. If you are using RSA signature authentication for IKE, you must also see Chapter 4 “Using Certificates with HP-UX IPSec ” for instructions on configuring certificates. This chapter also describes how to maximize HP-UX IPSec security and how to use the HP-UX IPSec configuration utility, ipsec_config.

“Maximizing Security”
“Using ipsec_config”
“Configuration Overview”
“Step 1: Configuring Host IPSec Policies”
“Step 2: Configuring Tunnel IPSec Policies”
“Step 3: Configuring IKE Policies”
“Step 4: Configuring Preshared Keys Using Authentication Records”
