IPSec cannot change local Interface

Hello,

we have a VPN IPSec to some of our Customers. Now we need to change the local Interface from eth1 to eth4 because we have a new WAN with new IP´s.
The first VPN works without any Problem. But when we edit the second IPSec VPN and change the "local Interface" we get the following error in the Log and the Connection does not come up.

I checked with our Customer but they have no Log for the Connection. it seems the VPN does not finding the Way to them.

Any Ideas?

Regards

  • Found it!!

    The Remote Gateway was bound to the "old" WAN-Interface"....
    changed it to the new one and it works.

    You only see it in the Networkdefinition for the remotegatewy not in the VPN- Config.

    Regards
  • It's one of the unwritten rules:
    Never bind a netwok definition to a specific interface. Always leave with interface !
