ModeConfig Operation
After IKE Phase 1 is complete, the VPN connection initiator (remote user/client) asks for IP configuration parameters such as IP address, subnet mask and name server addresses. The ModeConfig module will allocate an IP address from the configured IP address pool and will activate a temporary IPSec policy using the template security proposal information configured in the ModeConfig record.
Note: After configuring a Mode Config record, you must go to the IKE Policies menu and configure an IKE policy using the
