[Authors] In IKE case, the Security Controller generates pseudo-random PSKs.
Hence, there is NO low entropy
content since this PSK is not based on human involment. Having said that, raw
RSA/ECDSA keys or
X.509 certificates are plausible. Let's add it:
"It requires information about the
required authentication method (i.e. a raw public key, a x509 certificate
or preshared keys), DH groups,
modes and algorithms for IKE SA negotiation, etc.”
Best Regards.
