PfSense to Cisco Router IPSec VPN Tunnel Parameters Question
-
Just doing some prelim before the actual setup before I talk on the phone with the tech to setup this IPSec VPN Tunnel so I can perhaps cut down on the confusion between us.
In the list of parameters I have from the other company they gave me two IPs: one labeled IPSec Peer Address and the other Remote Encryption Domain. I think that the Peer Address is pfSense's Remote Gateway in Phase 1, but is the Remote Encryption Domain pfSense's Remote Subnet in Phase 2? Or is it something else entirely?

Those are the values entered in the Cisco. SO the peer address is the public IP pfSense is using for it's end of the tunnel. The 'Remote Encryption Domain' is the subnet behind pfSense covered in the P2.
Swap those if they gave them to you to use in pfSense. But yes, Peer Address is the P1, Remote Encryption Domain is the P2.

@stephenw10 Thanks. I'll try it that way and see what happens. I'll let you know of the results.

@R-Mana So everything was correct and the VPN tunnel worked as expected. But I have a different problem to which I created a new post.
