%CRYPTO-4-RECVD_PKT_NOT_IPSEC

[ttran]

Hi All,

Below is an error message that I got on our VPN router. I checked Cisco webpage but couldn't find the solution. Can you please help me out? Thanks

%CRYPTO-4-RECVD_PKT_NOT_IPSEC : Rec'd packet not an IPSEC packet.

(ip) vrf/dest_addr= [chars]/[IP_address], src_addr= [IP_address], prot= [dec]

Did you see many of these messages? Is there a vpn connection that seems to drop offline after a certain period?

This URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1835/products_system_message_guide_chapter09186a008009e75f.html states that the message means that the incoming packet met a crypto map acl permit entry, but the packet was not ipsec encapsulated.

If you are receiving many of these messages, contact the administrator of the remote host (src_addr) and examine the crypto map acls to insure that both are mirror images of each other.

Let me know what you find.

Just following up to see if my prior post was of any help. Are you still having your issue or was it resolved?
