AutoKey IKE with Certificates

When using certificates to authenticate the participants during an AutoKey IKE negotiation, each side generates a public-private key pair and acquires a certificate. As long as the issuing certificate authority (CA) is trusted by both sides, the participants can retrieve the peer's public key and verify the peer's signature. There is no need to keep track of the keys and SAs; IKE does it automatically.
