IPsec VPN change WAN connection

[JaapHoetmer]

Hi all,

We are trying to move an IPsec VPN over from one WAN connection to the other on a FGT100D, with a different ISP and thus a different public address. We reconfigured the VPN both ends, but it won't re-establish. Running diag debug ike -1 shows that the firewall still has the old connection in memory, and tries to continue to use it. When it tries to initiate over the new address, an error is shown:

duplicate connection detected on name insert, dropping this connection

I have seen the messages from ede_pfau about the black hole routing, but I am unsure how to make this work successfully. There's apparently no way to silence the connection attempts, reset the connection, or have it quiet down.

I have tried to disable the policies and disable the routes, both ends, and re-enabling them, but this had hardly any effect.

Reconfiguring the old WAN address and WAN interface specification on both sides of the VPN connection to what it was before re-enables the VPN immediately to its active state.

Any suggestions?

One thing I'm sure that would work is completely removing the old config then reboot.

In other words likely the sessions still exist. Try clear all session related to the old IPSec.

Thanks Toshi

I have taken your advice, removed the existing definitions related to the ipsec connection via console commands, in reverse order from creation:

[ol]

routing

policies

phase2

phase1[/ol]

modified the configuration, and applied these in the normal order:

[ol]

phase1

phase2

policies

routing[/ol]

and added a static route for the destination address passing over the secondary WAN port.

It works now.

Thank you
