FMC displays working IKEv2 tunnel DOWN

swscco001
Level 3
Level 3

Hello everybody,

our customer is using FMCv 7.2.5.1 and (two) Firepower 1120 (7.0.0.1)
for their S2S tunnels (see screen dump).

We changed a IKEv1 to IKEv2 tunnel (peer-IP 217.6.229.234).

In the VPN > Site To Site overview this working tunnel was displayed as
DOWN (see screen dump).

In the VPN > Site To Site Monitoring the tunnel is correctly displayed
as UP witn active sessions (see screen dump).

In the VPN > Site To Site there is no error message for this tunnel
(see screen dump).

What is the reason for this wrong indication in the Site To Site overview.
The customer feels unsave at such indication because there is a hospital
connected.

This seems to be a general issue becasue other working tunnels were
indicated ar orange.

Thanks a lot for every hint.



Bye
Rene

Can I see exactly the error message 

MHM

I dont see issue'

You meaning SA delete issue?

It s2s ikev2 so there is child sa which add or remove.

Check this point' access to ftd and see sa use currently for specific subnet' if there is no sa then there is issue if there is new child sa then it normal.

Hi MHM,

it's weired for the customer to see orange and red IKEv1- and IKEv2-tunnels even is the partners can
communicate over these tunnels without problems and the site-to-site monitoring displays green
operation status.

Is there a document how to troubleshoot such issues?

Thanks a lot!

Hi
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/secure-firewall/management-center/device-config/710/management-center-device-config-71/vpn-s2s.html

the only point left is under the Tunnel status Distribution do you config VPN using ISP backup or not ?

Hi MHM,

I wish you a Happy New Year!

We did not configure a ISP backup for the tunnels.

In der given link I did read the following:

  • Tunnel Status Table—A table listing the site to site VPNs configured using the FMC

  • Tunnel Status Distribution Chart—Aggregated status of the tunnels in a donut graph.

 


It is misleading if functioning tunnels are displayed in orange or red (DOWN) under
"Tunnel Status Distribution".

The customer asked: What is the difference between the VPN > Site To Site "Tunnel Status Distribution"
and the VPN > Site To Site Monitoring "Status"?

Thanks a lot!

thanks alot
Happy new  year friend 

regarding tunnel issue can I see the config of tunnel 
MHM 

I have seen some inconsistent displays myself on a customer's FMC 7.4.1 - tunnel status shows no active data while VPN is up and passing data.

I've opened a TAC case just today and am waiting for the engineer to provide assistance.

Hi Marvin,

a Happy New Year for you!

Seems that this is a cosmetic bug of several FMC releases.

Do you already have any reply from the TAC?

Thanks a lot!

My TAC case has been referred to the developers. The TAC engineer had initially thought a resolved bug related to the old VPN monitoring page might apply but it did not. So at this point we are waiting on the developers to reply.
