Object

scalar r/w OctetString
The public Diffie-Hellman parameters for doing a Diffie-Hellman
key agreement for this device.  This is encoded as an ASN.1
DHParameter per PKCS #3, section 9.  E.g.
          
    DHParameter ::= SEQUENCE {
       prime   INTEGER,   -- p
       base    INTEGER,   -- g
       privateValueLength  INTEGER OPTIONAL }
          
Implementors are encouraged to use either the values from
Oakley Group 1  or the values of from Oakley Group 2 as specified
in RFC-2409, The Internet Key Exchange, Section 6.1, 6.2 as the
default for this object.  Other values may be used, but the
security properties of those values MUST be well understood and
MUST meet the requirements of PKCS #3 for the selection of
Diffie-Hellman primes.
          
    In addition, any time usmDHParameters changes, all values of
type DHKeyChange will change and new random numbers MUST be
generated by the agent for each DHKeyChange object.
