I reviewed and ultimately disabled the mangle tables, no help there. (they were setting up QOS rules).

the ipsec verify did show some issues like rp_filter was active, but forcing it off had no effect once I corrected them.

One more behavior I've noticed, when the tunnels are active, I cannot access the remote host via the pubic ip address (ssh or ping).  I can only get to it through a third host not part of the tunnel.  If I totally tear down the tunnel and stop pluto, then I can communicate to the remote host via the public IP address.

I've pretty carefully reviewed the rest of the firewall rules, so far, nothing seems to help.

I even tried setting ESP=NULL-MD5, in hopes of sniffing the unencrypted packets outbound to see if I can determine which host might be at fault, so far I cannot even narrow it down to which host, though my gut tells me the south host from the pings I can trace.


I'll may have to take a break for a couple days, but I'll be back and if someone has more hints of how to debug this please forward them.

But nothing is actually working, no pings, no ssh anything between the 2 sites.
I've done some tcpdumps (tcpdump -nni enp1s0f1 icmp)

Check forwarding and NAT rules? Run "ipsec verify" to see if there are
other issues, like rp_filter.

But at the same time the left tcpdump is showing:
tcpdump -nni ppp0 icmp
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on ppp0, link-type LINUX_SLL (Linux cooked), capture size 262144 bytes 22:10:05.698183 IP 8.0.1.10 > 10.20.0.66: ICMP echo request, id 11456, seq 902, length 64 22:10:06.348152 IP 8.0.1.10 > 10.20.0.66: ICMP echo reply, id 7793, seq 107, length 64

Notice the IP address have changed from 10.20.1.10 to 8.0.1.10 when packets are arriving back.

I would at the nat and mangle tables and see if anything is being done
there.

The firewalls are both running shorewall and I believe the configurations are correct, but can include those files is needed.

Tuomo might be able to say more on that.
