Issue/Introduction

  • Route Based IPSEC vpn session status failed.
    Down Reason: No proposal chosen.
  • Local Endpoint IP modification has not realized since the old endpoint deletion was stuck in progress.

    Example of realization error log-
    /var/log/proton/nsxapi* on nsx-managers

Environment

VMware NSX
VMware NSX-T Data Center

Cause

An IP address conflict exists between the static route next-hop and the IPsec VTI interface. This overlap prevents the successful realization of the IPsec local endpoint configuration/modification

Resolution

Delete the static route which has same next hop as the VTI port.

To validate VTI interface ip:
SSH to active edge
"get gateways" to find the ipsec terminated Gateway.
vrf <vrf-id>
get interfaces, trace to VTI interface
