ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_PROCESS_ERR_NONCE

ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_PROCESS_ERR_NONCE means an IKE nonce value could not be parsed or accepted. Nonces are random values used to bind and protect the negotiation, so malformed nonce data indicates a protocol or peer implementation issue.

What to check

  • Capture the IKE exchange to inspect the nonce payload and identify the transmitting peer.
  • Check for a peer software or firmware compatibility issue rather than changing certificate configuration.
  • Verify the exchange is not being redirected to a different endpoint or VPN implementation.
