VPN Tunnel to Draytek - Multiple subnets but only one Security Association created

Description

A VPN Tunnel to Draytek is going up with only one Security Association (SA) although there are many Local/Destination Networks so more SAs should be created.

Cause

It looks like Draytek does not fully support multiple phase 2 security associations for a single VPN Policy with the default settings.

Resolution

To fix this, the option "Create Phase 2 SA for each subnet" has to be enabled on the Draytek (Vigor) router:

However, this may not work if you have the Perfect Forward Secrecy option disabled on the SonicWall. Please enable it from the configuration of the VPN Tunnel to the Draytek:
