Synopsis
Log Viewer shows IKE Phase 1 Negotiation message not received
Problem
Log Viewer shows IKE Phase 1 Negotiation message not received Log Viewer: Exceeded 3 IKE SA Negotiations Phase 1: Discarded a second initial packet, which arrived 5 seconds after the first
Solution
There are several reasons why IKE Phase 1 Negotiation would not be received:
- Secure Gateway Tunnel IP address is not referencing the IP address of the correct NetScreen.
- UDP Port 500, UDP Port 4500 and IPSec Protocol 50 might be blocked by the ISP or at the router. All 3 must be allowed through in order to establish the VPN.
- IKE ID on the NetScreen-Remote client does not match the IKE ID for the User account on the NetScreen device
- Phase 1 encryption algorithm on NetScreen-Remote does not match Phase 1 encryption negotiation on the NetScreen
- Phase 1 authentication algorithm on NetScreen-Remote does not match Phase 1 authentication negotiation on the NetScreen
- Phase 1 Key Group on NetScreen-Remote does not match Phase 1 Diffie-Hellman group on the NetScreen
- In ScreenOS 4.0.0 or higher:
If the NetScreen device is configured as a layer 3 device, either Route mode or NAT mode, make sure the VLAN1 interface IP is not set.' There have been some issues when VLAN1 IP is configured to a non-0.0.0.0 IP address when the device is configured to Route or NAT mode.
From the command line interface (CLI):
unset interface vlan1 ip [Enter]
