VPN IPsec GRE: Cisco <-> pfSense
-
I'm a VPN Hub used to connect different partners. All partners using Fortinet, OpenBSD, Cisco, Huawei establish successfully their VPN IPSec GRE tunnel with my Cisco 2851 routers.
Unfortunately I have 4 pfSense partners worldwide which are unable to establish phase2 on two different Cisco router.This is error message I have on my terminal monitor:

Is there any known limitation between Cisco and pfSense which can prevent such implementation?
Thank you for your help

There is not nearly enough information to speculate about a possible cause or solution. The error on the Cisco side implies the firewall is sending GRE traffic outside of IPsec. The only way that could happen is if the IPsec tunnel is not matching the traffic.
Show the complete IPsec configuration on pfSense (you can hide/mask any keys) as well as the GRE configuration, IPsec firewall rules, IPsec logs, output of "ifconfig -a", and "netstat -rWn"

Thank you all for your inputs.
For sur from the Cisco side I have a public IP and guess my remote partners as well.
Here we are using IKEv1 which does not support Nat-T.I don't have control on the pfSense equipment so I have requested to my partners to join this forum to provide you with their inputs.

Indeed.
But this post is not in direct line with my initial issue as the remote IP is not my router https://forum.pfsense.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif
