PIX VPN stopped working since 7.0(2) upgrade.

We've a pair of PIX firewalls in failover mode with a few configured VPN connections to external sites that we occasionally use.

Since upgrading to 7.0(2) from 6.3(4), these connections have stopped working. Both connections initiated inbound and outbound are affected.

Clues in helping investigate this would be appreciated.

The upgrade process did convert your config.

from:

isakmp key ******** address PeerName netmask 255.255.255.255

to:

tunnel-group PeerName type ipsec-l2l

tunnel-group PeerName ipsec-attributes

pre-shared-key *

I found that if you replace the PeerName with it IP address, than it works again!

Don't forget to replace the * with the real key.

Since downgraded to 6.3(5) to get the VPN working - planning to upgrade once the need for this VPN goes away.

The config for 7.0(2) had IP addreses in the tunnel-group clauses.
