Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is responsible for which two functions? (Choose two.)
A. Establishing network speed parameters
B. Verifying the client’s patch level
C. Negotiating algorithms to use
D. Exchanging key information
Correct Answer: CD
Explanation/Reference:
Internet Key Exchange (IKE) negotiates the IPSec security associations (SAs). This process requires that the IPSec systems first authenticate themselves to each other and establish ISAKMP (IKE) shared keys.
In phase 1 of this process, IKE creates an authenticated, secure channel between the two IKE peers, called the IKE security association. The Diffie- Hellman key agreement is always performed in this phase.
In phase 2, IKE negotiates the IPSec security associations and generates the required key material for IPSec. The sender offers one or more transform sets that are used to specify an allowed combination of transforms with their respective settings. The sender also indicates the data flow to which the transform set is to be applied. The sender must offer at least one transform set. The receiver then sends back a single transform set, which indicates the mutually agreed-upon transforms and algorithms for this particular IPSec session.
