  • Hi Emmanuel,

    Thank you for your support,

    below is the phase 2 details that the customer send to me

    IPSEC Parameters (Phase 2)
    IPSEC Encryption: HMAC
    Authentication Method: AES
    Hash: SHA1, MDF5, SHA256
    Security Association Lifetime (seconds): 3600
    Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) (Yes or No)? Yes

    you can see the IPSEC Encryption is HMAC, so what SHA Profile is needed here?

    pardon for my English.

  • Hello Tharindu,

    Thank you for the follow-up!

    They are providing you with incorrect information as HMAC is not used for Encryption but AES is, so please clarify with whoever provided you with this the requirements for the tunnel.
