Connection may fail because IKE UDP Port seems to be blocked

Hi,

I've upgraded to 17.5 and I am trying to use the new Sophos VPN Client and I get the above message when logging on. No connection can be created. Please help. I've tried turning off the firewall on my PC and my local router. Is there something else I need to enable on the Sophos XG?

Cheers,

Max

  • Good day Ian,

    Hope you find this mail in good health , im getting a similar error message. When you say create firewall allowing IKE service, where should i be mentioning the port number

     

    Appreciate any assistance

    Thanks

  • Hi Raj,

    the XG comes with a predefined service for IKE.

    You add this to the firewall rule to replace what other ports you have in the services.

    If you still get the error follow some of the previous posters suggestions.

  • Thanks Ian for your message

    Have created a firewall rule as below :

    Source , Source Network , Destination and Destination Network as Any 

    Services as IKE

    Added required user to user or groups

    Use Outbound Address : MASQ ( since it asked for a NAT policy )

    Hope its right config
