Mode Config Records
Mode Config is similar to DHCP and is used to assign IP addresses to remote VPN clients. A Mode Config record may be selected during IKE policy specification. VPN clients connecting using an IKE policy with a Mode Config record will be assigned IP address from the pools specified in the selected Mode Config record. One or more IKE policies may use the same Mode Config record.

A Mode Config record contains a list of three IP pools for allocating to VPN clients. VPN Clients are allocated IP addresses from the first pool. When the pool is exhausted, they are allocated from the second pool. The addresses from the third pool are allocated when both the first and the second pool addresses are already in use. A record should contain a minimum of one IP address pool.
List of Mode Config Records
The List of Mode Config Records table contains the following fields:
Name: A unique name given to the record for identification and management.
Pool Start IP: Start IP for the pools configured. If the second or third pool is not defined, it will be displayed as 0.0.0.0.
Pool End IP: End IP for the pools configured. If the second or third pool is not defined, it will be displayed as 0.0.0.0.
Action/Edit: Edit the parameters of a Mode Config Record.
Select All: Select all the Mode Config Records.
Delete: Delete selected Mode Config Records.
Add: Create a new Mode Config Record.
Note: If a Mode Config Record is in use by an IKE Policy, you must disable the IKE policy first before you can Edit/Delete the Mode Config Record.
