Diagnosis of VPN connections

If the VPN connections fail to work after the configuration of the parameters,
the following diagnostic methods can be applied:

The command show vpn spd on the Telnet console calls the “Security
Policy Definitions”.

̈

Use the command show vpn sadb to access information about the
negotiated “Security Associations” (SAs).

̈

The command trace + vpn [status, packet] calls up the status and error
messages for the current VPN negotiations.

The error message “No proposal chosen” indicates a fault in the
configuration at the remote site.

The error message “No rule matched”, on the other hand, indicates a
fault in the configuration of the local gateway.
