Troubleshooting Site-to-Site VPN IPsec
######################################
************
Introduction
************
This document describes the methodology to monitor and troubleshoot
Site-to-Site VPN IPsec.
Steps for troubleshooting problems with Site-to-Site VPN IPsec:
1. Ping the remote site through the tunnel using the source and
destination IPs included in the policy.
2. Check connectivity between the routers using the ping command
(if ICMP traffic is allowed).
3. Check the IKE SAs' statuses.
4. Check the IPsec SAs' statuses.
5. Check logs to view debug messages.
**********************
Checking IKE SA Status
**********************
The next command shows IKE SAs' statuses.

This command shows the next information:
- IKE SA status.
- Selected IKE version.
- Selected Encryption, Hash and Diffie-Hellman Group.
- NAT-T.
- ID and IP of both peers.
- A-Time: established time, L-Time: time for next rekeying.

Viewing Logs for Debugging
**************************
If IKE SAs or IPsec SAs are down, need to debug IPsec connectivity
using logs ``show log ipsec``
The next example of the successful IPsec connection initialization.

Troubleshooting Examples
************************
IKE PROPOSAL are Different
==========================
In this situation, IKE SAs can be down or not active.
.. code-block:: none
vyos@vyos:~$ show vpn ike sa
The problem is in IKE phase (Phase 1). The next step is checking debug logs.
Responder Side:
.. code-block:: none
Jun 23 07:36:33 charon[2440]: 01[CFG] <1> received proposals: IKE:AES_CBC_256/HMAC_SHA1_96/PRF_HMAC_SHA1/MODP_2048
Jun 23 07:36:33 charon-systemd[2440]: received proposals: IKE:AES_CBC_256/HMAC_SHA1_96/PRF_HMAC_SHA1/MODP_2048

Jun 23 07:36:33 charon-systemd[2440]: configured proposals: IKE:AES_CBC_128/HMAC_SHA1_96/PRF_HMAC_SHA1/MODP_2048
Jun 23 07:36:33 charon[2440]: 01[IKE] <1> received proposals unacceptable
Jun 23 07:36:33 charon-systemd[2440]: received proposals unacceptable
Jun 23 07:36:33 charon[2440]: 01[ENC] <1> generating IKE_SA_INIT response 0 [ N(NO_PROP) ]
Initiator side:
.. code-block:: none
Jun 23 07:36:32 charon-systemd[2444]: parsed IKE_SA_INIT response 0 [ N(NO_PROP) ]
Jun 23 07:36:32 charon[2444]: 14[IKE] <PEER|1> received NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN notify error
Jun 23 07:36:32 charon-systemd[2444]: received NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN notify error
The notification **NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN** means that the proposal mismatch.
On the Responder side there is concrete information where is mismatch.
Encryption **AES_CBC_128** is configured in IKE policy on the responder
but **AES_CBC_256** is configured on the initiator side.
PSK Secret Mismatch
===================
In this situation, IKE SAs can be down or not active.
.. code-block:: none
vyos@vyos:~$ show vpn ike sa
The problem is in IKE phase (Phase 1). The next step is checking debug logs.
Responder:
.. code-block:: none
Jun 23 08:07:26 charon-systemd[2440]: tried 1 shared key for '192.168.1.2' - '192.168.0.1', but MAC mismatched
Jun 23 08:07:26 charon[2440]: 13[ENC] <PEER|3> generating IKE_AUTH response 1 [ N(AUTH_FAILED) ]
Initiator side:
.. code-block:: none
Jun 23 08:07:24 charon[2436]: 12[ENC] <PEER|1> parsed IKE_AUTH response 1 [ N(AUTH_FAILED) ]
Jun 23 08:07:24 charon-systemd[2436]: parsed IKE_AUTH response 1 [ N(AUTH_FAILED) ]
Jun 23 08:07:24 charon[2436]: 12[IKE] <PEER|1> received AUTHENTICATION_FAILED notify error
Jun 23 08:07:24 charon-systemd[2436]: received AUTHENTICATION_FAILED notify error
The notification **AUTHENTICATION_FAILED** means that the authentication
is failed. There is a reason to check PSK on both side.
ESP Proposal Mismatch
=====================
The output of **show** commands shows us that IKE SA is established but
IPSec SA is not.

Encryption **AES_CBC_128** is configured in IKE policy on the responder but **AES_CBC_256**
is configured on the initiator side.
Prefixes in Policies Mismatch
=============================
As in previous situation, IKE SA is in up state but IPsec SA is not up.
According to logs we can see **TS_UNACCEPTABLE** notification. It means
that prefixes (traffic selectors) mismatch on both sides
