Manual keying and replay prevention and ISAKMP negotiation



Does it make sense to talk about automatic negotiation of manual keying?
The DOI has parameters for the manual case.  Are people expecting that an
ISAKMP implementation would potentially somehow decided to negotiate manual
keying?  Isn't the DOI only relevant to the ISAKMP (i.e. automatic key
negotiation) schemes?
