transmitted during IPSec Negotiation. It is possible to change this name at any time and read it

VPN Client address: Virtual IP address used by the client inside the remote LAN: The
computer will appear in the LAN with this IP address. It is important this IP address not to
belong to the remote LAN (e.g., in the example, you should avoid an IP address like
192.168.1.10).
Address type: The remote endpoint may be a LAN or a single computer. In the first case
choose "Subnet address". Choose "Single address" otherwise. When choosing "Subnet
address", the two fields "Remote LAN address" and "Subnet mask" became available. When
choosing "Single address", only the field "Remote host address" is available.
