Cisco Systems press release announcing release of new version of ISAKMP+Oakely Internet key management daemon. The "Internet Security Association & Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP)" is a leading proposal within the IETF to provide standard key management for Internet protocols, including IP Security (IPsec) and also for other network layers such as Transport-Layer Security (TLS). ISAKMP provides a scalable, flexible, and secure mechanism for establishing Security Associations among a set of communicating network parties. The "Oakley Session Key Exchange (Oakley)" provides a hybrid Diffie-Hellman session key exchange for use within the ISAKMP framework. Oakley provides the important property of "Perfect Forward Secrecy", among other attributes.
