Example
The following example sets the remote peer’s IKE policies:

XSR(config-isakmp)#
config-mode
This command sets the local IKE Mode Configuration role. While not officially an IETF standard,
config‐mode is the de facto standard for assigning IP addresses within IKE.
Internet Key Exchange (IKE) Mode Configuration, as implemented by many vendors, allows a
gateway to download an IP address (and other network level configuration) to the client as part of
IKE negotiation. Using this exchange, the gateway gives IP addresses to the IKE client to be used
as an inner IP address encapsulated under IPSec. This method provides a known IP address for the
client that can be matched against IPSec policy.
When configured as a Mode Config gateway, the XSR allocates an IP address to a peerm requesting
it and when configured as a client, the XSR requests an IP address from the gateway.
Syntax
config-mode {client | gateway}
