IPsec VPN disconnections Message ID: 18055 and Error: EPR_VPN-1 - IKE message retransmission timed out

Patrick Hayden

Various users are being regularly disconnected from their IPsec VPN, using the Sophos Client.

Users see an error "Connection may fail. The IKE UDP port seems to be blocked"

They will usually be able to reconnect within five minutes.

On the logs I can see "Message ID:  18055 and Error: EPR_VPN-1 - IKE message retransmission timed out (Remote: x.x.x.x)" where the x is the public IP address of the end user.

I'm struggling to imagine that there is an issue with ports being blocked as the VPN will generally connect but just kicks people of a few times a day.

    Hi Bharat, I'm fairly sure there have been no recent changes as they would likely have gone through me.

    Is there any likely configuration issue that would cause this?
