This article describes issues with using a loopback interface linked to a Virtual IP (VIP) for IPSec dial-up connections.
Scope
FortiGate.
Solution
Note:
IPsec VPN remote access does not support loopback using virtual IP as of the moment. The connection may go up, but it will not allow traffic pass at all. It will also show esp_errors in the VPN event logs.
This article formerly described steps on how to configure a setup with IPSec VPN and a loopback interface accessible via Virtual IP. This setup does not work, and the steps were removed accordingly.
