Re: quick mode "proxy" case



Hi Francis,

    To add to ur question can anybody tell me how do we specify
address range, say IPV4addressrange in proxy mode using identity payloads.

Also what i couldnt understand was, are u interested in IKE or IPsec role.
Since IKE doesnt care whether its Tunnel or transport. It just exchanges the
attributes and IDi,IDr. Local policies in IPsec does the rest

Regards
Saket.
