I'm trying to connect to a Contivity VPN using Shrewsoft. The Contivity

respond to my initial ISAKMP packet from Shrewsoft. Is DH Group 8 a
proprietary Nortel transform, or is it more widely used?


DH group 8 is based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography ...

This technology is quite arguably covered by patents so we have no plans to implement it.
