@JaredBusch I saw that, sure the info will come in useful for future projects . This weekend hopefully I can move to the ER4 with no major issues. All I am left to do is move firewall rules across/ port forwards to the ER4 and setup VPN.

I appreciate the config @JaredBusch this'll come in handy when I deploy ER's on both sides.

For now I'm still searching for a solution: ER (on one side) <--> Meraki MX (on the other side).

Ugh, that won't be any fun.

Change the authentication in ER to PSK.

set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com authentication mode pre-shared-secret
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com authentication pre-shared-secret ex3VRe3FAGv769sGwrpLPhqQ
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com connection-type initiate
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com description 'HQ to PSK Site A'
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com ike-group myike
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com ikev2-reauth inherit
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com local-address 123.123.123.123
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com tunnel 1 allow-nat-networks disable
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com tunnel 1 allow-public-networks disable
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com tunnel 1 esp-group myesp
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com tunnel 1 local prefix 10.254.103.0/24
set vpn ipsec site-to-site peer site.domain.com tunnel 1 remote prefix 10.254.0.0/24

And then change the IKE and ESP sections from the last post to match WTF ever the Meraki uses.

I'll give that a try.

That previous error was due to copy/paste issues.

Here is the error I'm getting:

[ service nat ]
NAT configuration error: rule type not specified/valid

The NAT above was exported from a live router using show configuration command service | grep nat

Are you running 2.0? maybe something changed?

Edit: Nope

JaredBusch

Never mind. I read the error closer.. I missed a line when I copy/pasted
fixed above also.

set service nat rule 5000 type masquerade

ER4 <--> Meraki MX S2S is "up"
Many thanks to @JaredBusch for all the help.

FATeknollogee

@JaredBusch
S2S #1: ER4 (ip 1.2.3.4) <--> Meraki MX is up
S2S #2: ER4 (ip 1.2.3.4) <--> Unifi USG not working, just says "connecting" (when I run "show vpn ipsec sa)

Any tricks or tips to make S2S #2 work?

USG sucks...

FATeknollogee

@JaredBusch Don't talk bad about my USG :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
In a few week I plan on replacing the USG w an ER4.

For now, I was able to get the ER4 <--> USGp4 connection up & running...:thumbs_up:

FATeknollogee

I have 2 public IPs on the USGp4 (using WAN 1 & 2)
For some reason, the second peer (of my S2S) ER4 refuses to connect to the USGp4 WAN1 IP.
I finally tried WAN2 & it connected.

update:
ER4 <--> S2S <--> Meraki MX is/was an absolute disaster.
No workie!!!
For now, have to scrap the idea, it just doesn't work :angry_face: :face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

I don’t know enough about the Meraki side. But one would assume it can work. IPSEC is a standard.

You probably have to rub some cash on the Meraki to get it to work.
