Sorry - back after an absence...

Update:  Have followed the guide in the exact order as prescribed.  Have
updated the firmware to the latest version available MR7P2.  Have deleted
all previously created phases and policies and results are the same as below
- after selecting IPSEC in Action there are no subheadings under ---- Auto
Key ---- so no tunnel exists to choose.  I'm stumped.
