Question

IPSEC VPN Setup help?

Hello,

 

I am trying to setup an IPSEC VPN on a Fortigate 200b, but it isn't working. I created a user "test" and assigned them to group "VPN Users"

I then went into VPN and did the VPN wizard. Now I tried this twice, and have 2 VPN tunnels listed, but am unable to delete them for some reason. Delete is greyed out. At any rate, when I went through the wizard, I set my Incoming Interface as the WAN interface, Client Address Range 10.3.0.50-10.3.0.254, subnet mask 255.255.255.0; checked enable IPv4 Split Tunnel, and set Accessible Networks to Local_Lan which is an object I created with IP range 10.2.1.0/24.

 

Under the forticlient software, I clicked IPSEC VPN, set the remote gateway to my public IP, did a pre shared key the same as I did in VPN setup, set authentication to save login, but when I try to connect to the vpn it says connecting for about 20 seconds, then comes back with "VPN Connection failed. Please check your config"

 

I set log level to debug but it has a bunch of stuff which I don't really understand.

 

Could someone please point me in the right direction?

    If you can't delete the old tunnels it's because other items reference them, you need to identify and delete those first
