Description

Naming of the "Remote/local subnets" labels looks not to be appropriate.

According to this link - https://www.netgate.com/docs/pfsense/vpn/ipsec/ipsec-routed.html

Create a Phase 2 entry under this Phase 1, set with…
Set Mode to Routed (VTI)
Set Local Network to Network - # If Network is preferred and probably the only logical choice here - why not to remove this dropdown menu?
Enter 10.6.106.1/30 for the Local Network Address - # This statement in fact sets VTI IP address and mask
Enter 10.6.106.2 for the Remote Network Address - # This statement in fact set's VTI gateway IP address (IP address of the remote VTI)

I would propose to change "Local Network Address" label to something like "VTI IP address and mask" and "Remote Network Address" to "VTI gateway IP address" or "remote VTI IP address"

Current labels might easily confuse and make think about networks that should be interconnected by routed IPsec.
