ASA 5510 Remote Access iOS devices issue

Sam Byers
Level 1
Level 1

I'm having a weird issue that just cropped up in the last week or so. Previously, ipads and iphones were working fine on our IPSec VPN, but now they don't work at all.

The iOS device throws one of two errors:

1. "Negotiation with the VPN server failed." (asks for user and pass first, then gives this error after about 30 seconds)

2. "The VPN server did not repond." (might just be intermittnet 3G network I'm testing over)                  

If the error is #1, the ASA says this:

tacacs+ and aaa debug:

user: testuser
Tacacs packet sent
Sending TACACS Start message. Session id: 11763, seq no:1
Received TACACS packet. Session id:1263956303  seq no:2

crypto isakmp debug (Negotiation with the VPN server failed.):

Same error with a different debugging level and another tunnel group:

Jun 12 10:16:50 [IKEv1]: Group = Test_Tunnel_Group, Username = testuser, IP = 174.252.107.180, User (testuser) authenticated.
Jun 12 10:16:50 [IKEv1]: Group = Test_Tunnel_Group, Username = testuser, IP = 174.252.107.180, Assigned private IP address 10.1.50.175 to remote user
Jun 12 10:16:50 [IKEv1]: Group = Test_Tunnel_Group, Username = testuser, IP = 174.252.107.180, Forcing iPhone to host mask. <--is this forcing the mask to 255.255.255.255 because the iphone requires that?

If the error is #2, the ASA says this:

Jun 11 15:13:18 [IKEv1]: IP = 174.232.18.200, Connection landed on tunnel_group MobileDevices

I've changed a lot of settings, but I haven't gotten anywhere. I've tried different tunnel groups and connection profiles. This setup works fine on a Windows computer with the Cisco VPN Client (5.0.07). ASA is running 8.2(5), split tunnel, no pfs, group name and psk, tried with and without peer ID validation, NAT-T (udp 500, 4500).

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
