IPSec pfSense to Unifi USG
-
According to the status the connection is up, however I cannot make traffic pass between the 2 LANs. The route distance is set to 30 - no idea what this means! It is an IKEv1/AES-128/SHA1/DH14 tunnel. At the USG end PFS is ON, as is Enable Dynamic routing. Anyone know how to make this actually pass the traffic? Many thanks

As I posted elsewhere, you CANNOT test the VPN via the UI Ping utility. It always fails. You need to test the tunnel using endpoints. I am assuming this is a small bug?

You didn't post a lot of information. Please gather your IPsec configs, firewall rules and come back, and more details on the issue (what kind of traffic? errors?).

I know I'm a little late, but it is important to DISABLE 'Dynamic Routing' in Unifi. After that, most of the traffic will flow.

Not a bug. If you are testing an IPsec tunnel and want to test from LAN to LAN you have to tell ping to source using an address in the LAN. If you leave it at the default it will follow the routing table and attempt to leave WAN (in most cases). So pick the LAN or whatever local interface has an address which will pass through the IPsec tunnel.
So it's doing exactly what it was told to do. That may not be what you wanted it to do, but it has no way to know that.
