Hello,

I am trying to configure remote access VPN with 837 and cisco software client. here is a relevant part of my config:

when I try to connect from the vpn client to the router I get the following error

Mar 2 00:39:34.203: ISAKMP:(0:0:N/A:0):Encryption algorithm offered does not m

What can be the problem? the config seems OK. The site-site tunnel is working and I have successfully configured many vpn clients on the pix. I have tried changing the policy parameters but did not help. I even installed the newest version of VPN client (IOS 14.4(5a). Any ideas? Has anyone had a simmilar problem?

Hi

Can you revert whether you are trying to apply this on any subinterface or any interface configured with secondary ip address ?

Hello,

Thank you very much for your response. I mentioned in the post that I provided the relevant part of the configuration but it is not true. I omitted the firewall/access-list configuration which turned out to be a problem.

I enabled esp and isakmp from any to the interface but could not connect. Then I disabled the IPsec over UDP and could connect but not access the lan. I kept getting these wrong encryption messages, which really distracted me.

I then opened UDP 4500 and enabled IPsec over UDP again and it worked!! but I also tested that ESP and ISAKMP ports mut also be opened. At least the ESP as, as far as I know, the UDP encapsulates only isakmp messages.

I hope this might be helpful to others.

Thanks again.
