Implementing IPSec in a linux bridge.


Hello,
I have a linux box configured in bridge mode placed in each of my two agencies.
The two boxes are placed behind routers and play the role of passive firewalls.
Today my boss ask to configure the bridges to enable the two agencies LANs to communicate via IPSEC. I wonder if there are specials conditions to configure IPSec in a bridge.
could anyone give me a HOWTO to configure IPSEC on my two linux box .

Hey all,

As my question is related to IPSec, I continue this topic.

I would like to deploy an IPsec VPN but using pre-shared key(PSK).
However, if I use a PSK, I wonder when it will be used?

In the ISAKMP phase 1, a secret key is generated by both peer in order to establish a secred channel.
Is my PSK used at this moment ?

If not, what is it used for?

Thanks
