accIpsecStatsIllegalProtos

Module: ACC-IPSEC

OID (symbolic): ACC-IPSEC::accIpsecStatsIllegalProtos

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5.1.1.81.2.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: Number of packets dropped because the protocol contained inside the received IPSec packet was incorrect, i.e. a transport mode SA contained a tunneled packet or a tunnel mode SA contained a non-tunneled packet

What is accIpsecStatsIllegalProtos?

ACC-IPSEC::accIpsecStatsIllegalProtos counts encrypted packets that were discarded because they violated the tunnel mode or transport mode rules—for instance, a transport-mode SA receiving a fully tunneled packet or vice versa. This error usually means the tunnel is configured inconsistently between your device and the peer, or someone is deliberately sending malformed IPSec traffic. For example, seeing 10 of these errors right after a policy change suggests the peer device wasn't updated and is still using the old tunnel mode.
