	Mode Config record from the pull-down menu.
	Note: Because Mode Config functions only in Aggressive Mode, selecting

	and disables the Main mode. Mode Config also requires that both the local
	and remote ends are defined by their FQDNs.
	• No. Disables Mode Config for this IKE policy.
	Note: An XAUTH configuration via an edge device is not possible without
	Mode Config and is therefore disabled too. For more information about

	page 7-37.

	Config Record	records that you defined on the Add Mode Config Record
