Test VPN Connectivity

Perform this task to test VPN connectivity.
  1. Initiate IKE phase 1 by either pinging a host across the tunnel or using the following CLI command:
    test vpn ike-sa gateway
    <gateway_name>
  2. Enter the following command to test if IKE phase 1 is set up:
    show vpn ike-sa gateway
    <gateway_name>
    In the output, check whether the Security Association displays. If it doesn’t, review the system log messages to interpret the reason for failure.

    test vpn ipsec-sa tunnel
    <tunnel_name>
