SunScreen 3.2 Administrator's Overview

IKE Policy Rules

Besides the IKE options given above, IKE policy rules can also specify a SOURCE_SCREEN and a DESTINATION_SCREEN clause. These clauses each take the name of a Screen object, and anchor the usage of a rule to particular Screens upon which to perform the specified IKE processing.

Like SKIP, IKE policy rules can also use the SOURCE_TUNNEL and DESTINATION_TUNNEL options; as in SKIP, these specify a (possibly fictitious) IP address (object) to be used as the tunnel identity at one or both ends of an encrypted tunnel.

In addition, IKE policy rules can use TRANSPORT mode, which does not tunnel the data (wrap a new IP header outside an inner one), but rather secures the data portion of an IP datagram, using and leaving exposed the original source and destination IP addresses.

IKE Policy Rule Syntax

Command line syntax for various IKE policy rules is shown below. Note that the backslash (\) at the end of a line indicates that the line continues on the next line. Do not include any Returns, Enters, or backslashes when typing rules.
