IPSec established, no Traffic passing.
-
mobile IPsec doesn't work at the moment.
-
OK, thanks cmb..
Is it a routing or filtering problem then?
Nothing i can do about it? -
Most likely it's an ipsec tools issue. See this thread for more details http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,23519.0.html
-
anyone try the newer snap-version, the newer version can work fine? thank U!
-
I tried May 14th snapshot and was able to successfully establish pure IPSec VPN connection between iPhone and pfSense and access internal network. Thanks for fixing it guys
-
hey azzido, with which settings?!?
-
If you setup a site-to-site type tunnel, IPsec work. If you setup a mobile style tunnel, it does not work. I confirmed this again last week, but I was on the May 12th snapshot. I should update and try it again today.
I'm not sure what azzido did, but I'd also be interesting in knowing what method was used.
I know how to make it work by hand after the connection is established, but it is completely impractical and only useful for verifying tests. (See my post on the ipsec-tools-devel list here: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=4BEDB60C.2080501%40pingle.org )
-
I just tried a mobile tunnel again on today's snapshot and I still can't pass traffic when it connects.
-
after all, what was/is the problem with roadwarrior support?
wrong security policies (SPD's)?!?
I'm would love to know, how azzido got it working, with or without little snitches.. -
When the mobile client connects, it makes SPDs but doesn't properly tie them to the tunnel somehow.
Flushing the SPDs and adding them back by hand makes it work - though the output of setkey before and after appears identical.
-
I will post my setup once I get back home. It's basically the same setup that I posted in my previous thread that was not working before. Typing this while on the bus connected via VPN :)
-
no way, man. congrats to the first benefits of your first class tunnel…
but you didn't had to flush & re-add the policies by hand? (i guess not, in a bus...)
i tried with the same config you've posted in another thread, iphone& ipsec i guess, on a 14May/22:45-i386-livecd-snapshot, but without luck..would be great if you could help..
-
No, didn't have to do anything fancy this time. It just works. And SPDs are auto generated. The only problem is if iPhone disconnects from 3g it does not automatically re-establish VPN tunnel so you have to connect manually. I think there is a way to force iPhone to automatically establish tunnel when you try to access certain sites.
-
i dont get it. how could this be possible.. you're sure that traffic is passing through the tunnel?
jimp couldn't get it to work too, at least without flushing spd's.. -
Yep, works like a charm actually. I just need Internet connection with faster uplink now
-
you've separated the ipsec-net from the lan-net this time (ip range)?
386 or amd64?
nano or live?
tell us, make us wise, my friend..what about your network setting's, did you add a new gateway?

User that you specify in iPhone needs to be created on pfSense under System -> User Manager
-
If you use Alix board disable glxsb under System -> Advanced -> Miscellaneous
-
Firewall needs to allow incoming UDP connections from WAN on ports 500 and 4500
-
Firewall needs to allow IPSec traffic; create allow all rule with loggin while testing
Try this and post your /var/etc/racoon.conf in case it does not work.
Good luck

-
awesome, thanks..
i give it a try right now.. -
Are you using that script mentioned in the other thread that flushes the keys? If so, it's just doing what I did by hand, automatically. And it's not a long-term solution for anyone using IPsec for other uses as well as mobile clients.
-
No, I am not doing anything this time. It's all configured thru web interface. SPDs are automatically created by Racoon and they work just fine.
pfSense is running on Alix board, iPhone OS is v3.1.3
