+The steps in this article require you to modify and import the Azure VPN Client profile configuration file. The following profile configuration files are generated, depending on the authentication types configured for your P2S VPN gateway.
+
+* **azurevpnconfig.xml**: This file is generated when only one authentication type is selected.
+* **azurevpnconfig_aad.xml**: This file is generated for Microsoft Entra ID authentication when there are multiple authentication types selected.
+* **azurevpnconfig_cert.xml**: This file is generated for Certificate authentication when there are multiple authentication types selected.

+To work with VPN client profile configuration files (xml files), use the following steps:
 
 1. Locate the profile configuration file and open it using the editor of your choice.
 1. Using the examples in the following sections, modify the file as necessary, then save your changes.
 1. Import the file to configure the Azure VPN client. You can import the file for the Azure VPN Client using these methods:
 
-   * **Azure VPN Client interface**: Open the Azure VPN Client and click **+** and then **Import**. Locate the modified xml file, configure any additional settings in the Azure VPN Client interface (if necessary), then click **Save**.
