I'm currently having major issues getting an IPSEC VPN client to work properly on an IOS router. The VPN client will connect and I can ping any interface that is on the router itself. However, I cannot communicate with anything beyond the router. I have completely removed the VPN config and rebuilt it several times. I've checked ACLS and routing. I'm not sure what the issue is here.
Per CDP the LAN layout is:
vpn client ----- Internet ---- 2851 VPN router --- csw02 ---- csw01 --- Server we need to reach (172.18.0.38)
VPN client Pool: 10.1.8.0 /24
2851 VPN Router 172.18.3.1 vlan 13
cssw02 172.18.3.230 vlan 13
cssw02 172.18.3.254 vlan 13
The trunks between the switches are DOT1Q with Vlan 13 native (172.18.3.0 /24 subnet).
Once the VPN client connects, I receive an IP of 10.1.8.10, then I can ping the router at 172.18.3.1 or any other subinterface on the router. I cannot ping beyond the router. Pings to the server on cssw01 at 172.18.0.38 fail. Pings to any SVI on the switches fail. A look in the statistics of the Cisco VPN client shows the correct secured route. I am attaching sanitized configs. I appreciate any help with this. Thank you!

Hi
These routes are useless because you already have a direct connected interface having an ip in these subnets:
ip route 172.18.0.0 255.255.255.0 172.18.3.254 ip route 172.18.3.0 255.255.255.0 172.18.3.254
Can you try to ping 172.18.0.254?

I agree. I removed the routes. From the VPN Client connected computer I cannot ping 172.18.0.254. I can ping 172.18.0.1, because it is on the router.
The vpn client appears to be properly injecting the routes from the split-tunnel ACL. I turned off ip routing on the csw02 switch. It's running as a layer 2 switch now. ip routing is enabled on csw01 with a route sending 10.1.8.0/24 traffic back to the router at 172.18.3.1.

From the output of the debug ip icmp it looks like the packet it making it to the switch. Here is the requested info:

For your acl split-tunnel, instead of extended acl, change it to standard acl by configuring only subnets without any keyword at the end and test again please.
05-25-2018 09:44 PM
I think I tried that before, but the issue was that the client configuration group will not let me specify a standard list.
2851-CME-rtr(config)#crypto isakmp client configuration group IPSECVPN
2851-CME-rtr(config-isakmp-group)#acl ?
<100-199> access-list number for split-tunneling
WORD Access-list name
2851-CME-rtr(config)#access-list ?

<100-199> IP extended access list

I changed the ACL, but it still won't ping.

I'm remote to the router. I'm not sure how to do a wireshark trace without disconnecting myself.

I created an ACL on the router and ran the debug against it. When I ping from the vpn to the switch there is no output on the router's terminal.
Router:
access-list 175 permit ip 172.18.0.0 0.0.0.255 10.1.8.0 0.0.0.255 log-input
access-list 175 permit ip 10.1.8.0 0.0.0.255 172.18.0.0 0.0.0.255 log-input
debug ip packet 175
From VPN client computer:
ping 172.18.0.254
05-26-2018 04:05 PM
I created a capture for interface G0/0.1 and G0/0.10. On both captures I pinged 172.18.3.254 and 172.18.0.254 from the VPN client computer.
In the G0/0.1 capture it does show the ICMP request and echo.
In the G0/0.10 capture it only shows the request for the ping to 172.18.0.254. It looks like those requests are going across G0/0.10, but the reply is trying to return on G0/0.10. If you look at the capture for G0/0.1 you can see the reply but not the requests.

Bump. Anyone?
