ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_UNSUPPORTED_ID - 13869 (0x362D)

Technical Meaning

The ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_UNSUPPORTED_ID error code indicates that an unsupported Internet Key Exchange (IKE) or IPsec identifier was encountered during the negotiation process. This typically occurs when a peer sends an IKE message containing an ID type that is not recognized by the local system.

Error Details

This error is specific to the IPsec/IKE protocol stack and can arise in various scenarios, such as when attempting to establish or maintain a secure connection using IPsec. The identifier in question may be related to a security association (SA), policy, or other configuration element that is not supported by the local system.

Usage Context

The ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_UNSUPPORTED_ID error can occur during various phases of an IPsec/IKE negotiation, including initial key exchange, policy enforcement, and SA establishment. It may also be encountered when attempting to configure or modify IPsec policies on a Windows system.

Developer Interpretation

When encountering this error, developers should consider the following:

• Verify that all security associations (SAs) and policies are correctly configured and supported by the local system.
• Ensure that the IKE messages being exchanged contain only identifiers that are recognized by the IPsec/IKE stack. This includes checking for any custom or vendor-specific ID types.
• Review the configuration of the IPsec policy to ensure it is compatible with the remote peer's configuration.

Q: How can I resolve this issue?

A: Ensure that all security associations and policies are correctly configured. Verify that the IKE messages contain only recognized IDs by the local system.

Summary

The ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_UNSUPPORTED_ID error is a specific IPsec/IKE protocol error indicating an unsupported ID during negotiation. Developers should focus on verifying configuration compatibility between peers to resolve this issue.
