[c-nsp] IPSEC over NAT - what am I missing?

Remove AH from the equation and it should work. For example, change your
Transform Set to this:

crypto ipsec transform-set L2L esp-aes 256 esp-sha-hmac

I'm not sure but maybe NAT-T doesn't work with AH.

Subject: [c-nsp] IPSEC over NAT - what am I missing?

Hi,

I've tried to set up a VPN connection between two Cisco routers via a 4G
link ... after having it running in a lab (without NAT though), we moved to
config to the actual site routers and it failed ...

So now we went back to the Lab (GNS3 in this case) and tried again,
activating NAT on the gateway in between. It also failed. After trying just
about anything we could think of, we're at a dead end ... here's some
excerpts from the configs ...

----
Site A (static IP):

crypto isakmp policy 1
  encr aes 256
  authentication pre-share
  group 5
crypto isakmp key test address 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 crypto isakmp keepalive 20 10

------------------------

Site B (dynamic IP, outgoing NAT on the gateway):

crypto isakmp policy 1

----------------------------

Gateway (simulating the Internet and the NATing gateway):

interface FastEthernet0/0
  ip address 192.168.150.190 255.255.255.192
  ip nat outside

!
!
ip nat inside source list NAT interface FastEthernet0/0 overload !
!
ip access-list extended NAT
  permit ip 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255 any

------------------------------------

No matter if NAT is enabled or not, the ISAKMP SA is up:

SiteA#sho crypto isa sa
IPv4 Crypto ISAKMP SA
dst             src             state          conn-id slot status
192.168.150.160 192.168.150.190 QM_IDLE           1005    0 ACTIVE

SiteB#show crypto isa sa
IPv4 Crypto ISAKMP SA
dst             src             state          conn-id slot status
192.168.150.160 192.168.2.2     QM_IDLE           1005    0 ACTIVE

But with NAT on the gateway, pings do not get through:

SiteB#ping 105.1.5.70 source fa1/0

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 105.1.5.70, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 106.1.5.2 .....

Packets are encrypted, though:

SiteB#show crypto ips sa

interface: FastEthernet0/0
     Crypto map tag: VPN, local addr 192.168.2.2

    protected vrf: (none)

      current outbound spi: 0x4B38900E(1261998094)

The remote end does not accept those packets though:

SiteA#show crypto ip

      local crypto endpt.: 192.168.150.160, remote crypto endpt.: 
192.168.150.190
      path mtu 1500, ip mtu 1500, ip mtu idb FastEthernet0/0
      current outbound spi: 0xBD4A7DDC(3175775708)

On the gateway, I see the NAT translation correctly:

Pro Inside global      Inside local       Outside local      Outside global
udp 192.168.150.190:4500 192.168.2.2:4500 192.168.150.160:4500
192.168.150.160:4500

Site B notices it's behind NAT and switches to UDP 4500 correctly.

Anyway, I do get errors on either side:

*Mar  1 01:41:25: %CRYPTO-4-RECVD_PKT_INV_SPI: decaps: rec'd IPSEC packet
has invalid spi for destaddr=192.168.150.160, prot=50,
spi=0x32040000(839122944), srcaddr=192.168.150.190

and

*Mar  1 01:29:58: %CRYPTO-4-RECVD_PKT_INV_SPI: decaps: rec'd IPSEC packet
has invalid spi for destaddr=192.168.2.2, prot=50,
spi=0x32040000(839122944), srcaddr=192.168.150.160

Disabling NAT and clear ISAKMP, everything works as expected:

SiteB#clear crypto isa
SiteB#clear crypto sa
SiteB#ping 105.1.5.70 source fa1/0

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 105.1.5.70, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 106.1.5.2 .!!!!

What am I missing here????

Help appreciated,

Garry
