Which two components are required in a Cisco IOS GETVPN key server configuration? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. RSA key. A Cisco IOS GETVPN key server requires an RSA key pair to sign and distribute group policy via the GDOI protocol to registered group members.

Why each option

A Cisco IOS GETVPN key server requires an RSA key pair to sign and distribute group policy via the GDOI protocol to registered group members.

ARSA keyCorrect

An RSA key pair is required on the GETVPN key server to cryptographically sign the GDOI rekey messages that deliver traffic encryption keys and group policy to all registered group members. Without the RSA key, the key server cannot authenticate itself during the GDOI registration exchange or securely push updated keying material to the group.

BIKE policy

Although IKE is involved in the GETVPN registration phase, a discrete IKE policy entry is not the primary key-server-specific component being tested here - the RSA key is what uniquely defines the key server's signing and authentication capability.

CSSL cipher

SSL ciphers belong to TLS-based VPN solutions such as Cisco AnyConnect SSL VPN and have no role in GETVPN, which relies on IPsec and the GDOI key management protocol.

DGRE tunnel

GRE tunnels are a component of DMVPN architectures; GETVPN is a tunnel-less solution that preserves the original IP header and does not encapsulate traffic in GRE.

EL2TP protocol

L2TP is a Layer 2 tunneling protocol used in remote access dial-up or broadband VPN scenarios and plays no part in GETVPN's group-based IPsec key management architecture.
