pre-shared-key (VAM client view)

for encryption and integrity validation of the VAM protocol packets.
Use undo pre-shared-key to remove the configuration.

pre-shared-key { cipher | simple } key-string
undo pre-shared-key

No pre-shared key is configured.
Views
VAM client view
Default command level
2: System level
Parameters
cipher: Sets a ciphertext pre-shared key.
simple: Sets a plaintext pre-shared key.
string-key: Specifies the key string. This argument is case sensitive. If simple is specified, it must be a
string of 1 to 31 characters. If cipher is specified, it must be a ciphertext string of 1 to 73 characters.
Usage guidelines
Configure the same pre-shared key for all the devices on the same VPN. The VAM server and clients use
the configured pre-shared key to generate the keys for protecting protocol packets.
For security purposes, all keys, including keys configured in plain text, are saved in cipher text.
Examples
# Set a plaintext key 123 for VAM client abc.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vam client name abc
[Sysname-vam-client-name-abc] pre-shared-key simple 123
