■ IKE-Peer view
Description During an IKE negotiation, the initiator sends its IP address as its identity to the peer if
the
id-type ip command is configured. The peer then uses the address or address
range configured with the
remote-address command to authenticate the initiator.
To guarantee a successful authentication, you must make sure that the IP address
configured with the
local-address command on the initiator is the same address
or within the address range configured with the
remote-address command.
