HP VPN Firewall Appliances Network Management Command Reference
375
• A retransmission interval that is too small can cause unnecessary retransmissions. A large value is
appropriate for a low speed link.
• Specify an appropriate transmission delay with the trans-delay keyword.
The authentication mode at the non-backbone virtual link end follows the one at the backbone virtual link
end. The two authentication modes (MD5 or Simple) are independent, and you can specify neither of
them.
For security purposes, all keys and passwords, including keys and passwords configured in plain text, are
saved in cipher text.
If you do not provide the cipher or plain keyword, cipher applies to MD5/HMAC-MD5 authentication
mode and plain applies to simple authentication mode by default.
