Default XP VPN encryption options?

VPN

What types of encryption does XP support as a VPN client? We use L2TP over
IPSec to connect with our WinXP clients to our Cisco firewall. The firewall
can do AES, but right now we have it set to use 3DES. 3DES is great, but AES
is better (and needs more processing power.)

So, does XP's builtin VPN client work with AES encryption?

XP doesn't support AES for IPsec.
