thanks for your help.i alreay know this commands to copy the config file but i doesn`t run through the VPN-Tunnel.

Michael

I am not sure that I understand your problem. Perhaps you can clarify a bit and we might be able to help you better.

I have implemented many VPN tunnels. I frequently tftp config files over the VPN. As long as the IP traffic (between the router whose config you want to copy and the PC to which you want to copy it) goes over the VPN I have never had a problem in copying config files.

So maybe you can help me understand your issue a bit better.

- does the IP traffic with source address of router B and destination address of PC go over the VPN?

- does the access list which identifies traffic for VPN include the source of router B and the destination of PC, and does the access list include tftp protocol?

- if you try to copy the config, what does not work?

hallo Rick,

thank you for help.when i copy the config file i get an error message :

%Error opening tftp://194.70.170.33/confg

the access-list allows tftp

i can ping the PC from router B

If you can ping to the PC from router B that is a good start. If you get an error in opening the tftp server it is an indication that something is not set up correctly.

Perhaps the next step is to verify some things about the tftp server. Most tftp servers will create a status message or log entry when there is an access attempt. If you check the tftp server while the router is attempting to copy the config file, does the tftp server see the access attempt?

If the tftp server is not seeing the access attempt we need to find out why. If the tftp server is seeing the access attempt then there are a few potential problems that depend on the implementation of the tftp server and the version of OS on the PC. In some implementations the file must exist before the router can copy to it. In some implementations there must be permissions for remote write to the file. Can you verify that these are not issues in this instance?

Can you verify that the tftp server is configured for the correct directory (folder, or whatever its OS calls it) and that there is sufficient room in the directory to write the config file?

hallo rick

thank you for help.

the tftp server is configured correctly because i get the config file from router A but not from router B.the log-file of the tftp server brings no enrys.

Michael

Thanks for the additional information. If you can write the config file from router A to the tftp server then it seems to assure that the tftp server is working ok and the problem is probably not one of the issue I mentioned in my previous post.

If the log file of the tftp server does not show any entry when router B attempts to send the config file then we can probably assume that the tftp is never getting to the server. Can you do a traceroute from router B to the PC? (This will send UDP packets and verify connectivity.)

My best theory right now is that either the tftp packets from router B are not getting processed by ipsec or that the responses from the tftp server are not getting processed by ipsec. Can you provide the relevant details of configuring ipsec on both routers (especially the access lists)?

Hi,

Try adding the following command in RouterB

ip tftp source-interface FastEthernet0

Thanks for posting the router config. I am a bit puzzled at what I see. You say in a previous post that you can ping the PC from router B and it looks like the address of the PC is 194.70.170.33. But that address is not a connected subnet and I do not see any static routes or any dynamic routing protocol. So how does router B know how to get to that remote address?

Rick,

sorry i have change the ip address in this example configuration and delete the default route.

Michael

Thank you Shijo George.

This has solved my problem.
