IP Security Architecture (Overview)

The IP Security Architecture (IPsec) provides cryptographic protection for IP datagrams in IPv4 and IPv6 network packets.

This chapter contains the following information:

To implement IPsec on your network, see Chapter 7, Configuring IPsec (Tasks). For reference information, see Chapter 8, IP Security Architecture (Reference).
