francs,
I am afraid in AIX this procedure is a little more complex. It is achieved via the "ipsec" command. Install the following filesets:
bos.net.ipsec.keymgt 4.3.3.0
bos.net.ipsec.keymgt 4.3.3.0
bos.net.ipsec.rte 4.3.3.0
Post installation - smitty tcpip - and two new options have appeared :
configure IPV4 security
configure IPV6 security
If you look at the IBM techdocs database | think that there is something about the ipsec command there. I have set it up twice and both times I had to script in manual changes to get it to work. In this instance perhaps HP provides an easier alternative for once.
Best of luck

I have also found another alternative to ipsec called tcp wrappers. This can be downloaded from It is the same as that implemented on Linux.
