What is ipsecIfIkeAuthentMethod?

This OID selects the authentication method (presharedKey by default, or dsaSig, rsaSig, rsaEncrypt) this gateway uses to establish dynamic IKE tunnels on this interface. An engineer switches this to a certificate-based method like rsaSig on interfaces requiring stronger authentication than a shared secret provides.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.838.3.14.1.3.1.16
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> XEDIA-IPSEC-MIB::ipsecIfIkeAuthentMethod

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.838.3.14.1.3.1.16.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> XEDIA-IPSEC-MIB::ipsecIfIkeAuthentMethod.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.838.3.14.1.3.1.16.1 s <value>
