I have a question regarding DES key: >From the MCNS (Cisco Press) book, it states that the DES key is generated by Diffle-Hellman. From what I understand, Diffle-Hellman only exchanges the IPSec peers public key during the shared secret key generation process, and each peer combines the other peer's public key (with their respective private key) to create the shared secret key. However, the generated shared secret key is never transmitted over the network (the insecure channel - i.e. Internet).
However, I also read from the CCO site that RSA actually sent the DES key across the network? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
