Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.Compare and align mutually supported Phase 1 proposals and DH settings.
  2. B.Increase encryption strength on only one side regardless of peer support.

  4. D.Change the route description to the peer’s hostname.
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Compare and align mutually supported Phase 1 proposals and DH settings.

Transport reachability is not cryptographic agreement. The peers need compatible offers. A unilateral stronger but incompatible proposal, forwarding permission or route description does not solve that negotiation failure.
