Hi Paul
Also, an observation I could make is, when the machine at Site Office tries to reach the HO VPN server, even though the ping does not happen, I can see the traffic go up incrementally on both sides. However when the HO tries to reach the Site Office, traffic from HO goes out and likewise the In traffic at Site Office also goes up incrementally, but there is no Out traffic from Site Office. Attaching the observation FYI. Any thoughts...?

When Site Office tries to reach HO

At Site Office
Traffic: ESPin=8KB ESPout=8KB! ESPmax=0B
Response at HO
Traffic: ESPin=8KB ESPout=8KB! ESPmax=0B

When HO tries to reach Site Office

At HO
Traffic: ESPin=0B ESPout=8KB! ESPmax=0B
Response at Site Office
Traffic: ESPin=8KB ESPout=0B! ESPmax=0B

So both agree on the tunnel and the traffic counters. It looks
operational.

I wonder if there is some kind of firewall on the network that allows
the initial packets but then starts blocking things ?

I changed the HO's statement to auto=add while keeping auto=start at
the Site Office. Also removed encapsulation statement at both
ends, However there is no change in status, both machines are unable
to reach each other. The tunnel is getting established as
always, attaching the logs from both sides FYI.
Once the tunnel is not working, can you run on both ends:

ipsec whack --showstates

Let's see if both ends are still thinking the tunnel is up or not.
