IPSEC between MikroTik's, one behind FTTN modem

Hi all,

Firstly, I am a beginner so please excuse me if this is a very basic issue and/or question.

I recently moved house (Router2) and the new ISP only supports FTTN.

I have 2x Mikrotik devices; a CRS125-24G-1S-2HnD (Behind a FTTN modem – Router2) and a hEX (FTTH hosting internet – Router1).

Both were previously configured to host the ISP connections and had a stable IPSEC tunnel between each other.

Currently I have the IPSEC configured to point at both new remote and local addresses and but cannot establish a link and see the following:

Router2 log:

ipsec, info: ISAKMP-SA established 10.13.13.2[4500]-110...34[4500] spi:sfdjslkfjdsf******dsfsdfsdfsdfsdfds
ipsec, error: 110.
.
.34 failed to pre-process ph2 packet
ipsec, error: 110.
.
.34 peer sent packet for dead phase2

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

update
I have since been able to establish PH2 but cannot route between the networks, any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

just add source and destination networks in IPsec policy

Both are already present in the policy.

ip ipsec policy print
Flags: T - template, X - disabled, D - dynamic, I - invalid, A - active,

    • default
      0 T * group=default src-address=::/0 dst-address=::/0 protocol=all
      proposal=default template=yes

1 A src-address=10.13.13.0/24 src-port=any dst-address=10.66.66.0/24
dst-port=any protocol=all action=encrypt level=require
ipsec-protocols=esp tunnel=yes sa-src-address=10.13.13.2
sa-dst-address=110...56 proposal=default ph2-count=1

update: I just checked and I am actually about to PING in both directions if i set the gateway to the router 2 Mikrotik address as opposed to the default gateway being distributed by the FTTN modem.

further detail:
FTTN modem address 10.66.66.1 (Default gateway and DHCP/DNS server)
Mikrotik address AP 10.13.13.2 (Configured as a WISP AP)
Laptop address manually configured IP with default gateway = 10.13.13.2 allows connectivity to router 1 (10.66.66.1)

all sorted, GRE tunnel setup with static IP address on the FTTN modem :slight_smile:
