IPSec Cisco and Sophos

Farzan Barouj

Hello everyone,
I want to set up an IPSec tunnel between Sophos (Head Office) and Cisco (Branch Office).

On Sophos I configured "Default Remote Gateway" as wild card (*). Because I have neither fixed IP nor ddns at the branch office.
I want to know if the tunnel goes on with wild card or not?

thank you in advance.

    Hello  ,

    Thank you for reaching out to the community, if the Gateway type is set to "Initiate the connection." then you can not set the "*" 

    You can't set the Remote gateway address to a wildcard (*) for the following:
    • Connection type is set to Tunnel interface. You can enter one of the following:
      • 0.0.0.0 (functions like a wildcard)
      • IP address 
      • DNS host name
    • Gateway type is set to Initiate the connection. You can enter one of the following:
      • IP address
      • DNS host name

    But if you select the Gateway type is set to "Respond only" then you can select " * " 

    Additionally KBA for reference - Configure IPsec connection between Sophos Firewall and Cisco ASA

    Thanks & Regards,
