Great, clear benefits to having a separate AAA server. So that's
the reason to neuter technology?
What you're talking about is a deployment issue and that really isn't
any of our business.

Telling administrators what they can and cannot do is really not

Hi,
I am looking to implement modp groups 22, 23, and 24 into IKE but have a
question.
RFC 5114 gives the prime, p, the generator, g and a subgroup, q, with a
specific size...
Because prior rfcs for modp groups did not specify a "q", I was not sure
if this was a new constant or just stating a s
Hi Joy
When one uses a subgroup like defined in RFC 5114, q (and (p-1)/2q ) must be
chosen carefully.
Precisely:
1. q must be a prime number of 2k or more bits where k is a security parameter.
2. q must be a divisor of ((p - 1) / 2).
3. Every factors of (p - 1) / (2q) must also be primes compara
Hi Joy,
"q" is the order of the group defined by the "g". If you want to use
the FIPS 186-3 process for generating a D-H key pair with the other MODP
groups that don't have a defined order (like 5, 14, 15, 16...) you can
just use (p-1/2) for the value "q".
There are going to be q distinct
