ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_ATTRIB_FAIL

ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_ATTRIB_FAIL indicates that the peers authenticated but could not accept the negotiated IKE/IPsec attributes. The mismatch can be in identities, proposal parameters, lifetimes, traffic selectors, or another policy value.

What to check

  • Compare the effective connection-security rules and IPsec proposals on both sides, not just the intended GPO settings.
  • Check whether a recent policy change introduced different authentication, encryption, integrity, or lifetime requirements.
  • Capture the negotiation on both peers when the effective policies appear identical.
