Get the following from "debug crypto ipsec":



IPSEC(sw_esp_decap): authenticate failed IPSEC(cipher_ipsec_request): decap failed for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -> yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy



Connection is up, but is slow.



Hi Paddy,

What is at the other end of this tunnel - router ??? / VPN Client.

Do you have an errors in your buffer /logs on either end of the tunnel - invalid SPI info perhaps making the VPN re-negotiate because a packet was received out of sync

Slow connections can sometimes suggest MTU issues. Do you find that smaller file sizes are OK but bigger transfers are problematic. Does the speed differ through the day ?

How does the link perform without encryption - is it possible to find out

General questions

Has anything changed recently, has anyone changed any of the phase 1/2 associations (unlikely I am sure) as you have indicated that it is working. Has the ISP done anything ? Do your crypto access-list and nonat access-lists tie up at either end.

If you can supply the above and maybe a little more detail, perhaps someone more knowledgeable will be able to assist.

Regards

Darren
