Configuring the Lifetime Association for a Policy
Caution
You may need to configure the initiator version even when the switch does not behave as an IKE initiator
under normal circumstances. Always using this option guarantees a faster recovery of traffic flows in case of
failures.
Tip
The keepalive time only applies to IKEv2 peers and not to all peers.
Note
When IPsec implementations in the host prefer to initiate the IPsec rekey, be sure to configure the IPsec
lifetime value in the Cisco MDS switch to be higher than the lifetime value in the host.
This section includes the following topics:
