Dear all,

   When I try to create vpn connectivity between two RV042  routers, It showing waiting for connection

Hello Ajay,

If by versions you mean hardware versions it should not have an effect on trying to establish a IPsec tunnel.

Hello ajay1komban,

If it is the same hardware version then I would recommend having both units on the same firmware.

Further have you attempted my above suggestions?

Dear all,

It is working, If I change from DDNS mode  to IP .

It is not working in DDNS Mode.

is It possible in DDNS mode

Hi,

In DDNS mode is possible as long as you configure both routers correctly. This means on both devices you configure:

Local Security Gateway type: IP only

Remote security Gateway type: IP only

and the submenu: Resolved by dns

Hello ajay1komban,

First double check your configuration on both sides of the tunnel and make sure everything matches.

You then could try checking to make sure your DDNS is resolving to your WAN IP addresses.

Lastly what I have noticed for initial site to site tunnel configurations if it doesn't connect right away or after you press connect you could try a power cycle on both routers to see if the tunnel will establish itself.

Thank you,
