FWP_E_INVALID_AUTH_TRANSFORM

FWP_E_INVALID_AUTH_TRANSFORM means an IPsec authentication transform is malformed or contains unsupported values. This is distinct from a peer refusing an otherwise valid proposal.

What to verify for FWP_E_INVALID_AUTH_TRANSFORM

  • Check the transform identifier, key material requirements, and structure initialization.
  • Make sure the transform is legal for the chosen IPsec policy and tunnel or transport mode.
  • Review the final policy after any conversion from higher-level configuration into WFP structures.

Diagnostic interpretation

This result has the HRESULT value 0x80320038. AllStat records the condition as “The IPsec authentication transform is not valid.”.

Evidence to capture

  • Capture any IErrorInfo text, activity identifier, event-log entry, and subsystem trace that mentions this result or the fwp / auth / transform operation.
  • Preserve the first failure in the call chain; a later HRESULT can describe cleanup rather than the original fwp / auth / transform condition.
