When a VSU recognizes that an target wants to communicate, the VSU uses the IKE Certificate Usage list to determine which bundle to send to the target. The search always starts at the top of the list, so it’s important to put the most frequently used bundles at the top of the list.

There can be cases when you have to make a general purpose bundle that applies to any type of target. Always place that bundle at the bottom of the IKE Certificate Usage list.
