Check Text (C-214683r997555_chk)

Verify only IKEv2 is used for the IKE security configuration on all configured gateways. Use of IKEv1 mitigates the risk to a CAT III finding. Show security ike gateway <VPN-GATEWAY> If IKEv2 is not used for IKE associations, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-15882r297637_fix)

For site-to-site VPNs, configure the Juniper SRX to use IKEv2 only. [edit] set security ike gateway <VPN-GATEWAY> address <GW-IP-ADDRESS> set security ike gateway <VPN-GATEWAY> version v2-only
