Phase 2 Selectors

Hi!

 

Should the Local Address be an internal address like 192.168.14.0 at our site and the remote address an internal address for the remote site lika 192.168.15.0 or should it be external addresses?

 

Thank you.

The selectors (as the name implies) 'select' the networks that are allowed to pass through the tunnels on the INSIDE of the VPN, so yes the private addresses are the ones to be used here. Phase 1 determines the peer connections.

Thank you! The firewall tells me that the IPsec tunnel is down. I can't bring it up. The log says that Phase 1 is successfully though.

Thank you for the reply. I'm trying to connect to a Cisco ASA. Where do I find the monitor for IPsec/IKE?

Hi, please set as local address the local internal lan (192.168.14.0) and as remote address the remote lan (192.168.15.0). Kind regards.

I have this same Issue, everything seems to be correctly configured, outgoing and incomming policies, static route, ike, encryption and DS groups on both FG devices. But when I try to bring up phase 2 selectors, it pretty much does nothing but keep successfully negotiating phase 1.

Welcome to the forums.

 

Look into the logs. (Log&Report, Event log) There should show you the result of the tunnel negotiation in detail.

If these are route-based vpn, ensure a route is present.
