Troubleshooting / Peer Status down over IPSec VPN
« on: November 12, 2014, 02:41:28 PM »
Afternoon,
I currently have two subnets I'm trying to implement WanOS over. They are 192.168.1.0/24 & 192.168.2.0/24
I have installed VMware ESXi 5.5 on two HP Microservers and installed a dual port network card into each of these, they are both running 6gb ram.
I've assigned LAN0 one network card and WAN0 a separate network card, the management kernel is on the third network card.
This is identical on both servers.
All Standard vSwitches have the promiscuous mode set.
Every time I attempt to view Peer Status it just says down.
I did notice last night after reading some of the forum posts that my MTU was set wrong, WanOS was set to 1500 and the max that my broadband supports is 1442, I am using PPPoE authentication for connecting to my broadband supplier so have dropped this to 1400 on both routers, this should account for the additional header that PPPoE requires.
I can ping the remote networks fine, when I tracer route from a client on the network I get the following:
192.168.1.108 - My PC
192.168.1.1 - My Router
* * * *
I get 14 of these
* * * *
192.168.2.1
My next step is to bring the remote server to my house and build a test network to see if I can get the peer status up.
Is there anything obvious that I'm missing??
Cheers
Rob
