DMVPN with IPsec generating "IKMP_MODE_FAILURE" on spoke router?

Lost & Found
Level 2
Level 2

Hi,

I do have a Dmvpn with ipsec profile and it is generating a lot of logs related to %CRYPTO-6-IKMP_MODE_FAILURE Processing of Main mode failed with peer at x.x.x.x (multiple peer ip address) on some of my spoke router. Note, That my connection to hub is stable for more that a week.

From the peer address, I have located that it's another spoke site. Since this is a dmpn it also build a Ipsec tunnel to secure the connection between spoke to spoke right? But is it normal to see this logs though from other sites I cannot see this logs.

CRYPTO-4-IKMP_NO_SA -> Negotiation with the remote peer has failed, so there is a configuration mismatch between local and remote sites. Verify attributes at both sides.

 

During my testing, I'm able to see that I'm able to reach the spoke 2 LAN from Spoke 1 LAN segment. Does this mean that I'm having issue building the Ipsec or it it required since I still able to connect from spoke 1 to spoke 2.?

Hello,

 

the log messages ' %CRYPTO-6-IKMP_MODE_FAILURE: Processing of Main mode failed with peer' imply that the phase 1 policy does not match on both sides. Can you post the output of 'show run | inc crypto isakmp' from both sides ?

Hi George, heres the sample config.

Should all of the spoke site should build an IPsec tunnel in order to communicate. Though, Right now there no major issue. It just this logs %CRYPTO-6-IKMP_MODE_FAILURE:  is continuously generating some logs. 

Hello,

 

your DMVPN does not necessarily need IPSec, but it is highly recommended since you are sending data over the public Internet.

 

Either way, if you just want to get rid of the message in your syslog, you can configure the below:

 

logging discriminator CRYPTO_DROP severity drops 6 facility drops CRYPTO mnemonics drops IKMP_MODE_FAILURE

 

logging buffered discriminator CRYPTO_DROP 100000
logging console discriminator CRYPTO_DROP
logging monitor discriminator CRYPTO_DROP

 

 

Hi George, 

 

Thanks for your response. But I would like to verify why this logs is generated? If there's there failure from another spoke site with Ike phase 1 policy.. means the spoke-to-spoke communication is building an IPsec tunnel?

 

Another, thing. Why the ipsec on the other spoke 2 is ok while the spoke 1 isakmp is not?
