      Hello to all,

      i'm facing an issue with on of my Peer to Peer VPN.

      I manage multi site pfsense and i start to migrate SharedKey VPN to SSL/TLS because first one is deprecated.

      So far it went smooth for the most of them, bu i have a tunnel between 2 pfsens that are very far from each other, the first one is in Singapour and the other one in France.

      The Sharedkey tunnel is working absolutely fine, but when i switch to SSL/TLS mode,i get "Authenticate/Decrypt packet error: missing authentication info" on the client side, and the tunnel keep reseting, it stay connected just few seconds...

      I made some research and find some posts that suggest this could be related to bad connection and MTU... and i don't know how to handle this.
      I tryed to switch to UDP instead of TCP, but i getting more errors, so went back to TCP.

      For now i switch back to shared key because tunnel work fine in this mode.

      Any sugestions / help will be much appreciated.

      I must admit i m not a pfsense pro, not compltely noob as well, still learning a lot.

      Regards

        I answer my self it could be usefull for others:

        After few try, i change the role of pfsense and set the server on the slower side, now the tunnel is stable. :)
