Establishing internet protocol security sessions using the extensible messaging and presence protocol

摘要

Techniques are provided for sending from a client in a first network device a session initiate message over a first secure network connection that is configured to initiate a communications session with a client in a second network device. The session initiate message is configured to supply connection information for the second network device to establish a second secure network connection with the first network device. A session accept message is received from the client in the second network device over the first secure network connection that is configured to accept the communications session with the client in the first network device. The session accept message is configured to supply connection information for the first network device to establish the second secure network connection with the second network device. The second secure network connection is established between the first network device and the second network device using the connection information.
