      All of a sudden can not connect to IPSEC. Where can I find out what the rule codes mean. Networking guys say it's on my end, I say BULL!

        If you look at the parsed log (not the raw log) in the GUI, click the 'x' at the start of the line and it will tell you what rule matched.

        Guessing it's the default block rule, which would make sense in this case only if their IP changed on the tunnel. Check the IPs in the log message there against what is configured on the IPsec tunnel.

          Thanks for the quick response. The networking guy's not playing nice. They screwed up and not fessing up.
