Check Text ( C-34881r1_chk )
This check is not applicable if the installed VPN client is not used for remote access to DoD networks. Interview the IAO and/or site wireless device administrator and inspect a sample (3-4) of site devices. Review VPN client specification sheets. Verify AES encryption is enabled for the VPN client. Mark as a finding if AES is not supported or is not enabled.

Fix Text (F-30398r1_fix)
Use only AES encryption with VPN client.
