IPsec between XGS an UTM not working - only on-way traffic

We have an XGS (v19) in the head office and a UTM in the branch, which initiates the connection. The tunnel itself is up, firewall rules are in place allowing any to any between the office networks.

Funny thing is, that the traffic from the branhc comes through, but the other way around seems broken. I cannot ping unless I add a route via shell  ("ipsec_route add"), but if I remember correctly that should not be necessary as the routes should be added automatically on creation fo the tunnels.

  • We deleted and redid the tunnel (with the same settings!) and voila pinging worked out of the box and without the extra route...

    But we still have issues traffic over the tunnel but only with some of it... SIP and ActiveDirectory stuff seems to go through fine, HTTP on the other hand is broken. E.g. when I try to reach a NAS in the branch office from the main, we (sometimes) get the cert warning and after that the loading icon is spinning to eternity.

    Could this also be some sort of MTU issue?

    @Vishal: precedence is ipsec, static, sd-wan. We have two sd-wan rules, which only target SIP and SMTP going out specific WAN interfaces.

    @LHerzog: Did you see no traffic at all or only some of it? We will try the compression setting anyway :-)

  • some of it. and some of it was sometimes working, sometimes not. i could not figure it out. IPsec was up and no errors in the logs.

    Our partner had that brilliant idea that fixed it. His first idea was to use the SHA2 with 96 bit truncation option on XGS side but with that, the tunnel did not get come up
