7.3 Configuring Encryption Settings
Encrypting using IPsec
Communication with this machine can be encrypted using IPsec.
A device certificate signed by a certificate authority (CA) is required when [IKE Authentication Method] is
[Authenticate by Digital Signature].
A device certificate is not required when [IKE Authentication Method] is [Authenticate by Preshared Key].
In addition, to verify communication-partner devices, a certificate (root certificate authority certificate) issued by
another certificate authority of the partner must be imported into the machine.
