Check if both sites have the same algorithms, has the same secret, correct peer addresses, make sure you have enabled tunnel mode, and also correct addresses in ipsec policy
Also if you are using NAT you have to create additional accept rule for ipsec
Thank you for the replies. I couldn’t post a config as shortly after logging call the Unit seem ed to stop routing traffic on a VLAN. So ended up deleting the policies and it came back to life.
I do need to get this working, but had another idea on how to do it.
can a routerOS, dial another router OS via PPTP to establish a secure link?
