@pfbest

This is amazing! Thank you so much, it works really well.

@utilizador_estagio
I created an user and installed that user certificate in my machine...but it wont work.
what else can i do ?

Hello and thanks for your answer.

In fact, we saw some posts on the net with this log, pointing to a psk mismatch.
We made a lot (LOT) of tests with a lot of different PSK, the P1 never got up.

we tried some '1234', 'test', and so on, psk's ...

@dave-opc said in [IPSec] VPN with Multi Subnets:

It is possible, and it will not be with the same configuration

On Company2 you create 1st P2 with local 172.16.0.0 and remote 172.16.10.0 and create 2nd P2 with local 172.16.0.0 and remote 172.16.4.0
On Company1 you create 1st P2 with local 172.16.4.0 and remote 172.16.0.0 and create 2nd P2 with local 172.16.10.0 and remote 172.16.0.0

I had tried this, but I was forgetting to change the output interface of Company 1, that is, I was making a faithful copy of the existing P2, a lot of my attention, thank you for helping me.

security group Elastic IP: All Traffic

Searching the internet, I did not find anything related to pfsense in AWS providing VPN ipsec .

0_1532344848831_screenshot-sa-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com-2018.07.23-08-19-33.png

Bingo! That did the trick. Thank you :)

Figured it out! It was a mixup on the ip's configured in the Phase 2 network settings, when using the BiNat feature.

@nogbadthebad said in IPSEC VPN between 2 sites has constant ~20k traffic. How best to find out what it is?:

Have you tried a packet capture ?

I didn't realize pfSense had a packet capture. Thanks for suggesting it. Now the results. I ran a quick capture on ipsec and then found the busy ip address. A quick look at the lease assignments showed me it was my Uniden Police Scanner wifi dongle. Then it hit me. I run Proscan scanner software from my office that points to my Uniden scanner to capture fire calls in my town (using the "fire tone out" feature), and then email them to me so I can hear them on my phone. I totally forgot that I had that communication running all the time, but the packet capture quickly pointed it out.

Problem solved. Thanks for the tip.

@dkase279 mine prevents the tunnel from working as client machines can not ping through to my main site via the VPN. I'm going to log a call with Netgate if possible as it's preventing service. I also might put logs on here once it happens again.

Hi ,

Thanks for you response.

First of all please accept my apologies for my appalling grammar and spelling in my original post. My brain must have been frazzled.

I have sorted it by using a different browser (chrome) why i didn't try this initially i have no idea.

Thanks

Danny

You have two choices:

Create a P2 entry for every combination of your local subnet and remote subnets. Summarize the remote subnets into a larger network if they are closer together.

Yes, Cisco just asked for that. We are going to do a packet capture on both ends.

Here's the results:

Trying to route the same networks over OpenVPN as IPsec or some other conflict?

Going to have to post more information.

Sorry - can't help with that message on the PA. Obviously doesn't like something.

If all of the P2s hard fail the other side might send a disconnect for the P1 which pfSense will honor.

Whatever the answer, the problem lies in the IPsec logs.
