Working to setup up a IPv4 Client-to-Gateway VPN tunnel for MacOS clients configuring the MacOS native VPN client (Network Settings, VPN Interface, Cisco IPSec type). It appears I have been successful, using an IKE Policy (though no VPN Policy appears to exists) and ModeConfig to define the pool of IPv4 addresses assigned to connecting clients. On your Mac, choose Apple menu System Preferences, then click Network. Open Network preferences for me. Select your VPN service in the list at the left. If there’s a Configuration pop-up menu, click it, then choose a configuration. There may be only one configuration available.
