ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_NEG_STATUS_BEGIN
This constant marks the beginning of the IKE negotiation status range.
ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_NEG_STATUS_BEGIN is Windows status 13800 (0x000035E8) associated with the lower marker constant for the IKE negotiation status range. The system meaning is “This constant marks the beginning of the IKE negotiation status range.”
Likely impact: Retry and peer troubleshooting are inappropriate unless a real negotiation error accompanies the marker.
Typical causes
- a logger serializes enum markers with real errors.
- range checks expose the boundary constant.
- generated documentation treats every WinError symbol as a failure.
- corrupt telemetry records the category marker as an event.
Troubleshooting steps
- Verify that software treats the value as a range boundary used for classification, not as an operational failure returned by a negotiation.
- Collect producing code path and raw numeric value and surrounding status.
- Correlate enum or range-check implementation with IKEEXT operational events, Windows Filtering Platform events, IPsec security audits, policy export, peer configuration, and packet capture.
Useful evidence
- Collect actual IKEEXT event.
- Collect whether any negotiation request existed.
Recovery and retry
Fix the classifier or serializer so marker constants are not raised as incidents; diagnose the real status within the range when one exists.
Related errors
The next values in the range describe actual IKE conditions; this constant marks where that range begins
Example
A dashboard receives 13800 from an enum table, not from IKEEXT. Correcting the exporter prevents the marker from appearing as a failed tunnel.
