FortiGate Next Generation Firewall utilizes purpose-built security processors and threat intelligence security services from FortiGuard labs to deliver top-rated protection and high performance, including encrypted traffic.
This article describes issues with multiple dial-up IPsec VPNs on the HUB after upgrading to 7.0.13 or 7.2.6.
Scope
FortiGate.
Solution
When having a FortiGate act as a HUB/Dialup Server with multiple spokes/dial-up clients and the clients have overlapping phase2 selectors, for example, 0.0.0.0/0, it is possible to experience flapping issues.
Currently, the solutions would be:
Configure specific phase2 selectors to avoid subnet overlapping (avoid using 0.0.0.0/0 on all spokes/dial-up clients).
If routing either static or dynamic is already in place, disable 'add-route' under phase1 configuration as by default it is enabled (on Spoke FortiGate).
config vpn ipsec phase1-interface edit <name of phase1> set add-route disable end
Allow route-overlap under phase2 configuration on HUB/Dialup Server.
config vpn ipsec phase2-interface edit <name of phase2> set route-overlap allow end
After performing these changes, the issue should be resolved. The changes in default behavior are outlined in the release notes of v7.2.6 and v7.0.13.
In the case of multiple IPsec Tunnels on the same public interface, adding local IDs and peer IDs can prevent the Dialup Client from connecting to the wrong IPsec Tunnel:
