Hi, 

 

Please provide the output for the following: 

 

get router info routing-table details 192.168.0.102 

get router info routing-table details 10.58.152.10

 

Once you share these outputs, we can clarify what might be going wrong here.

 

Thank you.

Hi, 

 

If you could see that there is no route for 192.168.0.102 via IPsec Interface, that is why you are seeing reverse path check. 

 

Routing table for VRF=0
Routing entry for 192.168.0.0/22
Known via "connected", distance 0, metric 0, best
* is directly connected, VLAN-A.

 

You are receiving the traffic from source interface IPsec and you should also have a route that points at the Ipsec interface for 192.168.0.102. 

 

Please add a static route and it should fix this. 

 

Thanks, 

Shahan
