How does the "ISAKMP POLICY" work in a PIX client VPN configuration

I have a configuration question in regards to "isakmp policy" configuration.

I am looking through the sample configurations on CCO, and seeing that many of the configurations have multiple policies for users with client 3.0, 1.0, and PIX to PIX scenerios.

My question is, how do you map the appropriate policy to the appropriate VPNGROUP? For example, let's say I have a set of users running client version 1.0. I will be having them use VPN group VER1. With the VPN group, i would like to map the appropriate policy to set the hash, encryption, etc. How do I ensure they are mapped to the corrent isakmp policy?

To put it simply, I don't know how the "isakmp policy" works. I know that there are priorities, but I am not sure when the priorities are "compared" for matches. I am looking for a document that could explain this, or just an explanation from a tech would be great.

Thanks in advance.
