I have PIX configured for 3DES encryption VPN, and I want to test with AES 128 bit...

is it possible to keep the current vpn configuration and add a new vpn group that would use AES? and how to configure the IPSEC in this case?

Thanks
 
Yes, you can just add another transform set for your new encryption method. They just go down the list when trying to negotiate encryption:

crypto ipsec transform-set ESP-3DES-MD5 esp-3des esp-md5-hmac
crypto ipsec transform-set ESP-3DES-AES esp-3des esp-aes-hmac
crypto dynamic-map outside_dyn_map 20 set transform-set ESP-3DES-AES
crypto dynamic-map outside_dyn_map 40 set transform-set ESP-3DES-MD5
crypto map VPNclient 65535 ipsec-isakmp dynamic outside_dyn_map


For site-to-sites, just add another policy, it works the same way....keeps negotiating until it finds a policy that matches.

 
do I need to do anything on the ISAKMP commands?

I have this currently configured

isakmp policy 10 encryption 3des
isakmp policy 10 hash md5
isakmp policy 10 group 2
