Many interview questions will have several questions embedded within them. It is critically important to listen to the interviewer's complete question before beginning to formulate your answer. Many job candidates are nervous during an interview. This causes them to begin answering the interviewer's question before they have finished asking it. This makes them appear unprofessional and may result in them not providing the information the interviewer is requesting. A good practice is to pause for 2 seconds after the interviewer has stopped speaking before you begin your answer.

"Ike is a protocol that defines a mechanism for creating and exchanging keys. Ike implements both the Oakley and SKEME key exchanges. These are key-agreement protocols that allow authenticated parties to exchange keying material across an insecure connection. Both of the protocols function within the Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP) framework. Ike uses UDP port 500 to communicate."
