I'm trying to get an IPSec/IKEv2 setup working, which was implement following this I don't understand why, but when a client connects (StrongSwan on Android here), the session is closed because the server cannot authenticate itself using the RSA key (see the logs), although the key was successfully imported.

Any help or pointer greatly appreciated :)

Some extra info:

  • I noticed there is a 2048 bit keypair being used. I've been in this exact situation before and it ended up being an issue with the Cisco IOS I was using. I would try to regenerate a key of 1024 bits, re-authenticate and then re-enroll with the CA.

  • Unfortunately no, no solutions so far to get this working using the IOS router.

first shot: change the ipsec-transform-set to "esp-aes esp-sha-hmac". (remove the "256")

Or try to use the "default"-transform-set.

Have seen a lot of IOS-Releases where changing the transform-set broke FlexVPN.
