Error Message

%PIX-4-402101: decaps: rec'd IPSEC packet has invalid spi for

destaddr= dest_address, prot= protocol, spi= number

Explanation

Received IPSec packet specifies a Security Parameters Index (SPI) that does not exist in

SADB. This may be a temporary condition due to slight differences in aging of SAs between the

IPSec peers, or it may be because the local SAs have been cleared. It may also be because of incorrect

packets sent by the IPSec peer. This may also be an attack.

Recommended Action

The peer may not acknowledge that the local SAs have been cleared.

If a new connection is established from the local router, the two peers may then reestablish successfully.

Otherwise, if the problem occurs for more than a brief period, either attempt to establish a new

connection or contact the peer's administrator.
