Usage guidelines

This command applies only to manual IPsec policies and IPsec profiles.

You must configure an SPI for both inbound and outbound SAs, and make sure the SAs in each direction are unique: For an outbound SA, make sure its triplet (remote IP address, security protocol, and SPI) is unique. For an inbound SA, make sure its SPI is unique.

The local inbound SA must use the same SPI as the remote outbound SA, and the local outbound SA must use the same SPI as the remote inbound SA.

When you configure an IPsec profile for an IPv6 routing protocol, follow these guidelines:

Examples

# Set the SPI for the inbound SA to 10000 and the SPI for the outbound SA to 20000 in a manual IPsec policy.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ipsec policy policy1 100 manual
[Sysname-ipsec-policy-manual-policy1-100] sa spi inbound ah 10000
[Sysname-ipsec-policy-manual-policy1-100] sa spi outbound ah 20000
