bad pad length between 3005 and 501

[nwesley]

I have quite a few cisco 501s attached to a cisco 3005. the problem is that more an more frequently i am getting the following error that breakes out the client:

6366 10/02/2002 10:10:14.670 SEV=3 IPSEC/19 RPT=1051 172.23.2.48

IPSEC ESP bad pad length (8) >= buffer length (8)

can some one tell me what this means?? thanks

Are you running the latest code on these boxes. Any one else facing similar problem?

What is the version of VPN3005 and Cisco 501 (is it PIX 501 ??) . I tested the VPN interoperability between PIX501 v6.2(1) and VPN3005 (v3.5.5-Rel-k9) and didn`t find any connection problem.

the version of the cisco 501 is v. 6.22 and the version of the cisco 3005 is v. 3.6.1 . The error "bad pad length" is not constant, but when i do get it, it breaks the connection between the two devices. the connection i have set up uses extended network mode and i have set up the encryption as EzVPN.
