Abstract
Aspects of the invention include generation of a secure key exchange (SKE) authentication request by an initiator node of a computing environment. A non-limiting example computer-implemented method includes receiving an initialization response message at an initiator channel on an initiator node from a responder channel on a responder node to initiate a secure communication, the receiving at a local key manager (LKM) executing on the initiator node. A set of cryptographic keys is derived based on a security association payload of the initialization response message. A proposal list is built based on one or more security capabilities supported by the initiator channel. An authentication request message is built based at least in part on the set of cryptographic keys and the proposal list. The authentication request message is sent from the LKM to the initiator channel.
