Sounds like either the VPN is not really up (double check the VPN status on both ends) or there is a routing issue.
To verify, both subnets at each end of the VPN are unique?
Please post the relevant section of the VPN Status page for the affected VPNs from both machines.
By unique, I mean those 2 VPN subnets don't overlap with any other subnets each firewall has defined, not that the 2 VPNs subnets are different from one another.
I assume that you have restarted the VPN on both ends to see if that helps? First grab the output from the VPN Status page, though.
This is the status from ASG 6 and 7, hope this is what you requested... [[:)]]
I do not really understand what you mean by overlapping - the 2 subnets are different (172.16.10/23 // 172.99/16) - I thought this is all what is a "must have" to get a working VPN... So eventually you could explain this a bit further??
Of course, many times, not only the VPN, also both ASG's were restartet, the v6 ASG two times...

I bet your problem is that the systems don't know where to route the packets. Change that 172.99.x.x subnet to something that falls in the reserved IANA range -- I've seen this problem before with other routing / VPN Setups. If that doesn't fix it, I don't know what it could be.

Hmm.... 172.99.x.x is not in the list of reserved internal IP addresses as defined by RFC 1918: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc1918.txt
[...]
Valid Internal IP ranges:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (10/8 prefix)
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (172.16/12 prefix)
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)

Well, that clears that up... have you restarted both systems on both ends of the tunnel? Did this start after a recent update on either one?
Yep, looks OK.
Your VPN subnets are fine. I am asking if you have any other subnets in those ranges on either firewall for any particular reason.
Had to ask. [:)]
When you ping the remote subnet from the other, do you see the packet counts climbing for the VPN when watching the VPN Routes page?
Do you have strict routing on/off and what about the auto packet filter? If the auto packet filter is off, do you have the appropriate packet filter rules set (though this shouldn't be affecting pings unless you disabled all the ping settings).
2. packet counter are climbing at the vpn status page on v6 side, don't know how to get this information on v7 side...
