VPN between XG230 units drops

Tam Ben-Jusu over 6 years ago

1.The VPN between the two XGs drops out randomly, perhaps once a fortnight, and it certainly never comes back up after a reboot.

I have to go into VPN (both icons are green but no VPN exists), then click 'Disconnect' then 'Connect' in the VPN window.

Any advice on the IPSEC settings which should be most stable would be greatly appriecated?

Are both of the Firewalls configured to have static, public IP Addresses If yes, I'd suggest to configure both to "Initiate" the tunnel.

Can you Post screenshots of your Config of both appliances?

Do you see anything in the ipsec logs?

Apologies for the late response, MBP.

IPsec Policies from both sites (WP and SS) attached. Both identical and in 'main mode' not aggressive.

You need to Change "alot".

Please use the preconfigured Policies instead of building own.

Would recommend to use IKEv2 Policy between two XGs. Should work fine.
