In the console tree of ISA Server Management, click
Virtual Private Networks (VPN).
In the details pane, click the Remote Sites tab, and
then select the applicable remote IPsec site network.
On the Tasks tab, click Edit Selected
Network.
On the Connection tab, click IPsec Settings.
On the Phase II tab, in Encryption algorithm,
select one of the following:
3DES, to use Triple Data Encryption Standard algorithm,
and three unique 56-bit keys. This option offers higher
security.
DES, to use the DES algorithm and a single 56-bit
key.
In Integrity algorithm, select one of the following:
MD5, to use a 128-bit key (faster).
SHA1, to use a 160-bit key (stronger).
Select Generate a new key every to limit the amount of
time a key is reused before reauthentication is required. Specify
the time limit by typing a value in Kbytes, in
seconds, or in both fields.
Select Use Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) if master key
material should not be used to generate more than one session key.
Enabling PFS requires reauthentication and, therefore, may affect
performance. Then, in Diffie-Hellman group, select one of
the following:
Group 1 (768 bit), to generate 768 bits of
master key keying material.
Group 2 (1024 bit), to generate 1,024 bits of
master key keying material (stronger security).
Group 3 (2048 bit), to generate 2,048 bits of
master key keying material (strongest security).
Notes
For more information about VPN, see Solution: Virtual
Private Networking in ISA Server 2006 on the Microsoft
ISA Server TechCenter Web site(http://www.microsoft.com).
To open ISA Server Management, click Start, point to
All Programs, point to Microsoft ISA Server, and then
click ISA Server Management.
For ISA Server 2006 Enterprise Edition, expand
Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration
Server 2006, expand Arrays, expand
Array_Name, and then click Virtual Private
Networks (VPN).
For ISA Server 2006 Standard Edition, expand Microsoft
Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2006, expand
Server_Name, and then click Virtual Private
Networks (VPN).
Important
If you set a Kbytes or seconds limit for session
key settings, whichever interval is reached first will start a new
key.
When you use a stronger group for the Diffie-Hellman settings,
the secret key derived from Diffie-Hellman exchange has greater
strength. Use Group 2 when required for interoperability with
Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000 Server,
and Windows XP.
