VPN Trouble Shooting

GREG HARPER

What are some good commands to use when trying to troubleshoot an initial IPSEC site-to-site VPN?  I guess I should mention I'm using an ASA5520 v8.04.  It would be nice to have something that would tell you whether the management connection was being built or not or where the problems lie.

Thanks,

debug crypto isakmp

debug crypto ipsec

to show the actual setup as it happens - isakmp = Phase1, ipsec = Phase 2. As with all debugging be aware that this will place an extra load on the firewall

sh crypto isakmp sa

sh crypto ipsec sa

to show the status of Phase 1 and Phase

see the command reference for full details of these commands -

ASA 8.0 command reference
