encryption (Junos OS)
Syntax
encryption {algorithm (des-cbc | 3des-cbc);key (ascii-text key | hexadecimal key);}
Hierarchy Level
[edit security ipsec security-association sa-name manual direction (inbound | outbound | bidirectional)]
Release Information
Statement introduced before Junos OS Release 7.4.
Description
Configure an encryption algorithm and key for manual SA.
Options
algorithm—Type of encryption algorithm. It can be one of the following:
- des-cbc—Has a block size of 8 bytes (64 bits); its key size is 48 bits long.
- 3des-cbc—Has block size of 8 bytes (64
bits); its key size is 192 bits long.
Note: For 3des-cbc, we recommend that the first 8 bytes be different from the second 8 bytes, and the second 8 bytes be the same as the third 8 bytes.
key—Type of encryption key. It can be one of the following:
- ascii-text—ASCII text key. For the des-cbc option, the key contains 8 ASCII characters; for 3des-cbc, the key contains 24 ASCII characters.
- hexadecimal—Hexadecimal key. For the des-cbc option, the key contains 16 hexadecimal characters; for the 3des-cbc option, the key contains 48 hexadecimal characters.
Required Privilege Level
system—To view this statement in the configuration.
system-control—To add this statement to the configuration.
