Sophos Firewall v22 EAP is now available! Click here to learn more.
Hi everyone,
I'm having difficulty getting site to site IPsec to work properly with a Mikrotik device.
Both LANs use the same class 192.168.99.0/24 and to configure the Sophos (SG115 SFOS 20.0.0 GA-Build222) I followed these instructions: https://docs.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/19.0/Help /en-us/webhelp/onlinehelp/AdministratorHelp/SiteToSiteVPN/HowToArticles/S2sVPNIPsecConnectionPBVPNNATSameSubnets/index.html

The tunnel is established correctly, but if I try to ping a remote host (ex. 10.10.99.1) from the Sophos LAN, I get timeouts.
However, if I try to ping a host behind the Sophos from the Mikrotik I get a response and at that point the ping from the host behind the Sophos to the remote LAN also starts to work.
In the IPsec configuration I enabled the NAT option
Thanks to anyone who can help me
Hi Andrea C ,
Thank you for reaching out to the community, are you trying to ping with the LAN IP or the NATed IP ?
Thanks & Regards,

Hii
thank you for the support.
With the IP source of the LAN I have a negative outcome, I will try with the IP address (of the virtual subnet).
Stay tuned
Hi,
I solved the problem by allowing the esp protocol into the input chain on the mikrotik router.
However, I have a question: why do I not get a response from the console if I do a ping with the Sophos LAN address as the source?
Pinging from a host behind the Sophos works
Thank you
