<p>Hi George,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I don't remember exactly Cisco's commands to configure encryption, but it seems you config misses encryption settings for IKE negotiation. Your config on Cisco side should looks like the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>! This is IKE encryption<br>
crypto isakmp policy 10<br>
encryption ...<br>
hash ...<br>
group ...<br>
...<br>
! This is ESP encryption<br>
crypto ipsec transform-set myset ...<br>
!<br>
crypto ipsec profile myprofile<br>
...<br>
set transform-set myset<br>
!<br>
int tun151<br>
...<br>
tunnel protection ipsec profile myprofile<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>and IKE encryption (isakmp policy) must match "ike" parameter in connection definition, while ESP encryption (ipsec transform-set) must match "esp" parameter.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Hope this'll help.<o:p></o:p></p>
