Title: 2.5.0 IPSec: 1 tunnel works, another does not.
Post by: trymes on Wednesday 11 January 2012, 06:18:59 am
OK, so I just tried to replace a 2.4.1 Endian box with a 2.5.0 box. I did not perform an upgrade OR restore from a backup. I manually entered the various settings.

All went well, until I set up the two Net-to-Net IPSec tunnels. I enabled the VPN firewall and created a rule to allow all traffic and applied it. However, I had an odd experience:

1.) Tunnel #1 to a Snapgear SG560U came up and appeared to be perfectly normal, but I was unable to send any traffic. Pings in either direction failed to work.
2.) Tunnel #2 to an Endian 2.4.1 box also came up and seemed to work just fine. Pings back and forth, etc.

I tried to come up with an explanation, but I was unable to.

Any ideas? I know that 2.5.0 is now using StrongSWAN, but I do not think that should really affect anything here.

Are you saying you have a 2.5 box connecting with a 2.4.1 box using ipsec? Do you mind sharing the settings? I could not get this to work...
