Help with VPN to remote Cisco ASA

Hi, i am trying to establish an IPSEC VPN between my Fortigate 100E 212.221.102.30 and a remote ASA, but struggling to get phase 1 up and running, i am hoping its just something not matching up but i cant tell what.  There are only 3 things in the phase 1, Encryption, DH and key life.  I have attached the log to make sure there isnt anything the more experienced eye can spot.

 

Are their any limitations in terms of encryption options i can choose, my phase 1 proposal are just

Encryption AES256

Authentication SHA256

DH4

Key life 86400

 

Any help appreciated, or if i can run any other debus to help troubleshoot.

Ideally the VPN debug should include the phase1 proposals details. can you collect a fresh debug?

diag debug app ike -1
diag debug enable

Dear Customer,
Hope you are doing good.
As per the logs shared, I could see that there is proposal mismatch and hence phase1 is not getting established. Kindly check the configuration at both side FGT and Cisco end and configure the same set of parameters.

Hi,

 

Based on the provided logs, it seems like there is an issue during the phase 1 negotiation of the IPsec VPN between your FortiGate 100E (212.221.102.30) and the remote ASA (213.1.215.166). The error message "NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN" indicates that the two devices couldn't agree on a common set of encryption, authentication, or key exchange options during the phase 1 negotiation.

 

BR,

Manosh
