tmnxIPsecTransformPfsDhGroup
OBJECT-TYPE
1.3.6.1.4.1.6527.3.1.2.48.2.1.6
Description
The value of tmnxIPsecTransformPfsDhGroup specifies the Diffie-hellman (DH) key exchange to be used each time the Security Association (SA) key is renegotiated. After the SA expires, the key is forgotten and another key is generated (if the SA remains up). This means that an attacker who cracks part of the exchange can only read the part that used the key before the key changed. There is no advantage of cracking the other parts if the attacker has already cracked one. The value of 'inherit (-1)' specifies that the IPsec tunnel or gateway which refers to this IPsec transform will reuse the DH group configurations from its associated IKE policy table (tmnxIkePolicyTable). Specifically, if the value of tmnxIkePolicyPFSEnabled is 'true (1)', the IPsec transform will use the value of tmnxIkePolicyPFSDHGroup. If the value of tmnxIkePolicyPFSEnabled is 'false (2)', the IPsec transform doesn't use any DH group.
