Configuring Microsoft Windows IP Security to Operate with HP-UX IPSec

Step 6: Configuring the IKE Authentication Method and Preshared Key for the Rule
When configuring a rule to be compatible with HP-UX IPSec, the authentication method specifies
the IKE authentication method (preshared key or certificates) for IPsec. The authentication method
must match the value specified for the -authentication argument in the ipsec_config
add ike command.
Windows also allows you to configure Kerberos (Active Directory) as an authentication method
for IKE (this is the default), but HP-UX does not support this authentication method.
Use the following procedure to configure the IKE authentication method:
1. Select the Authentication Methods tab from the Rule Properties dialog box.
2. Click Add to open the Authentication Method dialog box.
3. To use IKE authentication with a preshared key, select Use this string. This is equivalent
to specifying -authentication PSK in the ipsec_config add ike command.
Enter the preshared key as ASCII text. Do not enclose the key in double quotes. The preshared
key must match the preshared key on the HP-UX system, which is configured using the
-preshared argument in the ipsec_config add auth command. For example:
