IPSec

The IPSec (IP Security) protocol suite, based on modern cryptographic technologies, provides security services like

encryption and authentication at the IP network layer. It secures the whole network traffic providing guaranteed

security for any application using the network. It can be used to create private secured tunnels between two

hosts, two security gateways, or a host and a security gateway. Up to three tunnels can be active at any given

time. Beyond three active tunnels can be saved, but they will not be active.

IPSec provides encryption and authentication services at the IP level of the protocol stack. IPSec can protect any

traffic carried over IP.

IPSec provides the following services:

● Authentication only

● Encryption only

● Authentication and encryption

Transmitting and receiving data securely over an unprotected network involves deciding on the type of IPSec

service, as mentioned above, required for the connection, establishing a secure connection by a key exchange

process and transferring data using that connection.

The key exchange process is done in one of two ways:

● Manual Keying where the authentication and encryption keys are provided manually on both sides of the

connection.

● Auto Keying using IKEv2 Protocol where the authentication and encryption keys are generated on either side

of the connection and exchanged by different methods.
