Differences between VPN tunnel types Operation Exchange Mode Direction/Type Gateway-to-Gateway VPN Tunnels Client-to-Gateway VPN Tunnels Main Mode-The IP addresses of both gateways are known (especially when FQDN is used), so each gateway can use the Internet source of the traffic for validation purposes. Aggressive Mode-The IP address of the client is not known in advance, so the gateway is programmed to accept valid traffic sourced from any Internet location (i.e., less secure). Both Directions-Either end of the VPN tunnel may initiate traffic (usually). Remote Access-The client end of the VPN tunnel must initiate traffic because its IP address is not know in advance, which prevents the gateway end of the VPN tunnel from initiating traffic.
