FVS336G v3 and Watchguard XTMv Site-to-Site VPN Configuration
Hi, i am trying to set up a Site-to-Site VPN using a Netgear FVS336G v3 on one end and a virtualised Watchguard XTMv on the other end. The VPN Tunnel is established most of the time, but no data...
Hi ESCde,
Welcome to the community! :)
Kindly check the SA Lifetime values. Let me share these old forum links that might help as reference:

Hi DaneA,
thanks for your response.
I checked the SA Lifetime values and did indeed find different settings for Phase 2 on each device.
I have adjusted the SA Lifetime settings to 3600 seconds on both firewalls. But the problem has not changed.
Right now, as well as most of the time, no data is being transferred across the tunnel even though the tunnel is up. But sometimes data is sent for a very limited time.
Do you have another suggestion?
Best regards,

Hi ESCde,
Kindly answer the questions below:
a. Does the Watchguard XTMv have a Public WAN IP address configured on it?
b. Is the WAN IP address of the FVS336Gv3 a Public WAN IP address?
c. Have you tried to change the LAN IP subnet on the FVS336Gv3 (or on the Watchguard XTMv) to a different one? For example, instead of 172.x.x.x, use either 10.x.x.x.
I look forward to your response.

NETGEAR Community TeamHi DaneA,
a. Yes, it has a static public WAN IP assigned.
b. Yes, the WAN IP of the FVS336Gv3 is a Public WAN IP too, however it is a dynamic IP, therefor i am using NoIP to update IP Information every 5 min.
c. No, I have not tried that. There are about 30 Clients in the FVS336Gv3 subnet and about 100 Clients in the Watchguard XTMv subnet. Thats why i would like to keep the configuration the way it is right now, exept if you say it is very likely to be the problem.
Thanks again,
ESCde
