      Hi,

      I got all credentials to set up an IPsec connection to a cisco environment , and it works on macosx with the built in (cisco) vpn client.
      So ar so good, but now I want pfsense to create the VPN and terminate it, so that I can use more machines behind the pfsense to reach
      the network behind the VPN, and not needing the vpn client on the mac.

      Is there a tutorial for setting pfsense to be a client to the cisco network ?
      Or: any clues for settings !?

      Rudi

        Just set up a site-to-site IPSec tunnel between the pfSense box and the Cisco router. There is lots of information on how to set up both. Getting them to inter-operate is as simple as using the same settings on both end.

            Then I don't believe there is a way of doing it. Have you tried setting up the site-to-site on pfSense to connect to the Cisco client VPN? You would have to disable Xauth on the Cisco side if it's enabled. I've never tried it myself but I doubt it will work.

              Is there an updated document for this?

              The below link is for version 1.2….

              https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/IPsec_between_pfSense_and_Cisco_IOS

              Does anyone currently have ipsec working with the latest release between pfsense 2.1 and a Cisco ISR?

              If so, could someone post both configs if possible?
