Cisco 831 Router and Cisco VPN client not working

eleith

Hi,

I've currently got a Cisco 1710 and a Cisco 831 router, with VPN functionality in it. I don't know a lot about VPNs but I have the 1710 up and running doing dial in users with the VPN client, and would like to get the 831 to do the same.

I've configured the 831 so it should work exactly like the 1710 based on http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/480/ipsec-ios-tacacs.html , but when the users connect, they login fine and get a secure connection, but then the router doesn't reply to any of the packets. The "Packets encrypted" entry goes up in the client as expected, but the "Packets descrypted" remains at 0. I've looked through the various documentation and debug logs and nothing seems amiss. The debug logs indicate the packets are being decryped, but they don't seem to be passed on to the destination IP on the LAN.

I've attached my config with the various ips+passwords removed, anyone got any ideas?

Hi,

Seems ok, make sure that your host inside can forward traffic for pool of IPs back to the router, also:

1 - no ACL blocking

2 - no NAT modifying traffic

Thx

Hi,

thanks for the reply, I've turned off all the NAT'ing and ACL's, still no luck, the strangest part I've noticed is that the router can't ping the assigned address of the client, which I would expect it to do.

I've set the router up as a Lan to lan connection for now, and I works fine, so I know the encryption and routing functionality is working ok.

I have the same problem. I'm using VPN Client 3.6.4 on WinXP with IOS 12.2.(13)T3 (on a 7200 router). Everything connects and I see encrypted traffic going out, but there are no decrypted packets coming back.

If you get any fixes for this problem, please let me know.

You didn't post your ios version info, so I can't be sure the following is the solution to your problem. However, it might save you a lot of time if you read "ios bugs 12.2(13)T + 12.2(13)T1 break client-to-router vpn on 806" at http://forums.cisco.com/eforum/servlet/NetProf?page=netprof&type=Subscriptions&CommCmd=MB?cmd=pass_through&location=outline@@.ee9360c/2
