Pose Mode - Armature
Pose Options Panel

Auto IK
Add temporary IK constraints while grabbing bones in Pose mode.
X Axis Mirror
X Axis Mirror in pose mode synchronizes the right side of a symmetrical armature with the left side of a symmetrical armature.

The same checkbox can also be found in the tool settings bar as an icon button. This allows quicker access and better visual control which mirror axis is currently active.
Relative Mirror
This is a setting for X Axis Mirror, and just shows when X Axis Mirror is ticked. Here you can define if the mirroring happens relative to the armature or to the world.
Affect Only Locations
This is for having more than one armature part selected. Scales or rotates the selection instead of scaling or rotating the single armature parts. The single bones keeps their scale and their rotation.
