ipsec vpn - cant access remote network

HaydenKirk,

did you create the appropriate firewall rules? Do you see any traffic blocked using drop-packet-capture host "remote ip" command from CLI?

I'm getting the following. I assume rule 0 is a default (block) rule?

Found the issue. Sophos was hold an old ipsec session. So it had two going. Killing the old session fixed traffic flow.

It's interesting that you need VPN as the port. The description of VPN does not actually state IPSec. Should be updated.

Hi HaydenKirk,

We also are having the same issue where our IPSEC tunnel connects OK and we can see the remote network from the Mikrotik side but nothing from the Sophos side.

We assume we have put the necessary rules into our firewall on our Sophos device but it is still not connecting.

Inbound = Source-VPN Destination-LAN Any Service

Outbound = Source-LAN Destination-VPN Any Service.

Would you be able to confirm if we are on the right track here.

thanks

Simon
