In this scenario, it is not possible to reach the local network despite the tunnel being active. Only incoming bytes are observed; no return traffic, and sent bytes remain at zero.
Topology:
- 192.168.0.0/16 — FortiGate — IPsec — FortiGate1 10.33.0.0/16
In this topology, IP 10.33.205.201 attempts to reach 192.168.2.28 over IPsec.
Routes are configured but appear inactive.

Solution:
Restart the routing table using the appropriate command during the scheduled downtime or maintenance window.
Command to restart the route:
