        Still no replies from anyone but I am still attempting to help myself so here is what I'm doing and here are my results.

        One of the trunks that keeps going down is a cisco PIX. So I remove the 86400 lifetime from SA 2. and kept group on 2 "I also tried off".

        I get the exact same results.

        I will try tonight adding the lifetime back and removing the first lifetime.

          Hello,

          Racoon really doesn’t want to recieve a FQDN when it’s trying to create a connection with a shared key.
          Make sure the Cisco has the line

          • isakmp identity address in it’s config.

          Don’t forget to set your DH and PFS number at the same number as the Cisco.
          In the past i have had problems between pfsense and "cisco´s" with DPD.

          Regards
          Heiko

              can you post your ipsec tunnel config from pfsense-side, are both sides static?

              racoon: ERROR: not acceptable Identity Protection mode –> maybe an MD5 or SHA problem in your config?

                  it looks OK, why do you choose "aggressive" mode and not main mode, did you try for phase 1 a lifetime "28800" and phase 2 "86400"?
                  Do you have tested it with SHA not MD5 and what errors shows the pix log?

                    I choose all of the following because that is what was required by the monowall instructions.

                      If you have on both sides static ip´s please test this as the  last slight hope, sorry but I haven´t a pix at the moment to duplicate your test

                        FWIW, I've had success connecting to PIX's without using no-xauth and no-config-mode
                        eg-
                        isakmp key ******** address x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.255

                        I also didn't have
                        isakmp identity address
                        isakmp nat-traversal 20
                        in my config. Otherwise similar- 6.3(5) on a 506

                          I've found a confirmation of what heiko said about the identification mode with a preshared key, in the source code
                          ipsec_doi.c
                          /* In main mode with pre-shared key, only address type can be used. */
