I have a SonicWall TZ 215 running SonicOS Enhanced 5.8.1.2-6o. I have configured the L2TP VPN using the default crypto suite ESP: 3DES/HMAC SHA1 (IKE). Proposals are as such:
IKE (Phase 1) Proposal
DH Group: Group 2
Encryption: 3DES
Authentication: SHA1
Life Time (seconds): 28800
Ipsec (Phase 2) Proposal
Protocol: ESP
Encryption: 3DES
Authentication: SHA1
Enable Perfect Forward Secrecy DISABLED
Life Time (seconds): 28800
When attempting to connect via my Mac OS X client I get an authentication error. It appears to pass the pre-authentication but fails to complete. I am at a complete loss. I reconfigured from scratch multiple times...used simple usernames and passwords to verify this wasn't a miskeyed password issue. I have Here are the logs (noted IP has been removed for privacy):
