RBVPN with dynamic IP forces to have ID type set

Hi folks,

referring to this case v18 - Route based VPN between two Sophos Appliances, branch office with dynamic peer IP and NAT - Discussions - XG Firewall - Sophos Community I have something to ask/add here.

I am not able to set up a fully working VTI for RBVPN between two XG firewalls (v18.0.4) where XG_A has a public static ip and XG_B has a public dynamic ip without set local ID and remote ID.
I have another combo of XGs running RBVPN but having respectively public static ip on both sides. Here no local / remote ID is necessary to make things work.

Is this design or bug? ;)

  • What do you mean by "Not work". Cannot you not save the config or does the tunnel not come up?

  • You are using Cert for auth? What about RSA Keys, do they work?

  • I am using RSA for authentication.

    I just found out that on XG with static IP remote ID must be set (i set it to a DNS value) and on XG with dyn IP local ID must be set to same value (understandably)

  • XG with static IP VPN config:

    XG with dynamic IP VPN config:

  • I believe you can also set it to e-mail and make sure to enter the same email address on both sides of the connection. (or dns and use ddns name).
