● IPSec supports communication to a unicast address (or a single device).
● The machine cannot use both IPSec and DHCPv6 at the same time.
● IPSec is unavailable in networks in which NAT or IP masquerade is implemented.
◼ Registration of Keys and Certicates
● A certicate and key that can be generated by the machine conform to X.509v3. If you install a key or CA certicate
from a computer, make sure that they meet the following requirements:
Format
● Key: PKCS#12
*1
● CA certicate: X.509v1 or X.509v3, DER (encoded binary), PEM
File extension
● Key: ".p12" or ".pfx"
● CA certicate: ".cer" or ".pem"
Public key algorithm
(and key length)
RSA (512 bits, 1024 bits, 2048 bits, or 4096 bits), ECDSA (P256, P384, P521)
Certicate signature algorithm
SHA1-RSA, SHA256-RSA, SHA384-RSA
*2
, SHA512-RSA
*2
, MD5-RSA, MD2-RSA, SHA1-ECDSA,
SHA256-ECDSA, SHA384-ECDSA, or SHA512-ECDSA
Certicate thumbprint algorithm SHA1
*1
Requirements for the certicate contained in a key are pursuant to CA certicates.
*2
SHA384-RSA and SHA512-RSA are available only when the RSA key length is 1024 bits or more.
● The machine does not support use of a certicate revocation list (CRL).
◼
Denition of "Weak Encryption"
When <Prohibit Use of Weak Encrypt.> is set to <On>, the use of the following algorithms are prohibited.
Hash:
MD4, MD5, SHA-1
HMAC: HMAC-MD5
Common key cryptosystem: RC2, RC4, DES
Public key cryptosystem:
RSA encryption (512 bits/1024 bits), RSA signature (512 bits/1024 bits), DSA (512 bits/1024
bits), DH (512 bits/1024 bits)
● Even when <Prohibit Weak Encryp. Key/Cert.> is set to <On>, the hash algorithm SHA-1, which is used for
signing a root certicate, can be used.
