GETVPN

COOP key servers fix the GETVPN control plane, but there is a trap: mismatched RSA rekey keys pass every failover test and then kill the group at the next rekey. We hit it on purpose.

The hands-on GETVPN build on Cisco IOS XE. Key server first, then group members (nine lines, no peer, no ACL), then verification. Every command verified on cat8000v 17.18.02.

GETVPN is the one VPN with no tunnels and no peers. Every site shares one group key. Real IOS XE captures prove it, including the packet capture that explains why GETVPN cannot cross the internet.
