What is cisgIpsSgTunAuthMethod?

This reports the authentication method used in Phase-1 negotiations for this specific control tunnel, per its description - the live per-tunnel record of whether pre-shared keys, RSA signatures, or another method actually secured this connection's peer authentication. It lets an admin verify, tunnel by tunnel, that peers are using the intended authentication method rather than assuming device-wide policy consistency. A tunnel unexpectedly showing 'preSharedKey' in a fleet that was supposed to have fully migrated to certificate-based RSA signature authentication would identify exactly which connection was missed in that migration.
