All information travelling from a device connected to a VPN will get encrypted and go through this tunnel. Found when connecting to a PA that I had to issue the “isakmp identity address” command to get Phase 1 to complete. The route configurations required in addition to NAT and VPN settings are: adminPA-2020 set network virtual-router default routing-table ip static-route local-site-NAT destination 2.2.2.0/24 interface tunnel.1 adminPA-2020 set network virtual-router default routing-table ip static-route local-site-NAT destination 3.3.3.0/24 interface tunnel. How Does VPN Work A VPN creates a private connection, known as a tunnel, to the internet. Once applied the tunnel came up and has been solid.

the resolution was to run the command “isakmp identity address” on the ASA which has the ASA send the IP address of the device. Basically said the PA does not respond to FQDN and will not form a tunnel with such a device. The PA admin saw the message and found a link on PA website.

Error MSG6 kept coming back (relates to password authentication/mismatch). Configured my tunnel and started testing. I have multiple L2L tunnels setup with varying devices (Cisco/non-Cisco). In the example below we are leveraging the intrazone-default rule, and this rule will allow both the IKE negotiation traffic ( untrust to untrust) and the encryption domains traffic ( trust to trust).One factor I found in setting up a L2L tunnel between a Cisco ASA And the Palo Alto is that the Palo Alto does not accept FQDN (which the ASA sends by default, I found out later). In this course, Configuring NAT and VPNs Using Palo Alto Firewalls, youll learn how to shape traffic using Palo Altos Next Generation Firewall. However, if we have a deny rule on top of the intrazone-default rule, or if we have overridden the intrazone-default rule action to deny instead of allow, then we need to create a couple of rules to allow the IKE negotiation traffic and the encryption domains traffic between the Palo Alto and ASA firewalls. At the core of network-security engineering is a thorough knowledge of NAT translations and VPN connections. This means that if we are leveraging the default rule intrazone-default which by default will allow the traffic traversing within the same zone, then we don't have to add any security policy to make our VPN tunnel functional.

Similar for the traffic between the encryption domains, in our case both the local encryption domains interface and remote encryption domains interfaces ( tunnel.1) belong to the same security zone, trust. The IKE negotiation traffic between the Palo Alto and the ASA will be traversing within the same zone, in our case, it will be sourcing from untrust destined to untrust. The interzone-default rule instead is used for the traffic traversing between the zones, for example, between trust and untrust, and this rule is set to Deny action by default. The intrazone-default rule is used for the traffic traversing within the same zone, and it is set to Allow action by default. For enterprises that operate multiple locations and access the cloud, a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) can offer many benefits above and beyond a VPN, including increased flexibility and agility to connect remote networks, improved user experience, and reduced costs. Hello everybody, Im having a weird issue with VPNs between a Palo Alto Cloud Firewall (PanOS9.1.3h) and Cisco Meraki Z3.All VPN Tunnels are established propely, but after a random period of time during the rekey step, a tunnel stays online, but network traffic cant be send anymore. Palo Alto firewalls have a couple of default rules, one is the intrazone-default and another is the interzone-default. Rekey causes VPN tunnel to stop sending network traffic. The security policies configuration for the VPN tunnel depends on our existing security policies.
