Define
Cryptographic Profiles
A cryptographic profile specifies the ciphers used for
authentication and/or encryption between two IKE peers, and the
lifetime of the key. The time period between each renegotiation
is known as the lifetime; when the specified time expires, the firewall
renegotiates a new set of keys.
For securing communication across the VPN tunnel, the firewall
requires IKE and IPSec cryptographic profiles for completing IKE
phase 1 and phase 2 negotiations, respectively. The firewall includes
a default IKE crypto profile and a default IPSec crypto profile
that are ready for use.
