Title: [SOLVED] IPSEC Net2Net not working with Hostname
Post by: eighty2scrambler on Tuesday 01 May 2012, 01:35:53 am
Have two networks connected via IPSEC net to net.  However network A has a Static Public IP, network B has a Dynamic public IP.  I set up DYNDNS.org account and updated the server.

Problem is it will not establish a connection when the hostname is in the "Remote Host/IP" field.  DNS servers have updated the hostname with correct IP.  As soon as I type IP back in manually, connection comes up

Any thoughts?

Network A is 2.5.1, network B is 2.4.1

This problem has been resolved!

Found out what LocalID and RemoteID are used for in IPSEC tunnels now :)

Thanks to a more experienced poster.

So these fields are absolutely necessary, I am trying to get a host-to-net connection and can't figure out why?
