715067

Error Message %ASA-7-715067: QM IsRekeyed: existing sa from different peer, rejecting new sa

Explanation The LAN-TO-LAN SA that is being established already exists, that is, an SA with the same remote network, but is sourced from a different peer. This new SA will be deleted, because this is not a legal configuration.

Recommended Action Check the LAN-TO-LAN configuration on all associated peers. Specifically, multiple peers should not be sharing private networks.

715068

Error Message %ASA-7-715068: QM IsRekeyed: duplicate sa found by address , deleting old sa

Explanation The remote access SA that is being established already exists, that is, an SA with the same remote network, but is sourced from a different peer. The old SA will be deleted, because the peer may have changed its IP address.

Recommended Action This may be a benign condition, especially if a client tunnel was terminated abruptly. If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

715069

Error Message %ASA-7-715069: Invalid ESP SPI size of SPI_size

Explanation The Secure Firewall ASA received an IPsec SA proposal with an invalid ESP SPI size. This proposal will be skipped.

715074

Error Message %ASA-7-715074: Could not retrieve authentication attributes for peer IP_address

Explanation The Secure Firewall ASA cannot get authorization information for the remote user.

Recommended Action Make sure that authentication and authorization settings have been configured correctly. If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

715075

Error Message %ASA-7-715075: Group = group_name , IP = IP_address Received keep-alive of type message_type (seq number number )

Explanation This message is paired with DPD R-U-THERE message 715036, which logs the DPD sending messages.

  • group_name—The VPN group name of the peer
  • IP_address—IP address of the VPN peer
  • message_type—The message type (DPD R-U-THERE or DPD R-U-THERE-ACK)
  • number—The DPD sequence number

Two possible cases:

  • Received peer sending DPD R-U-THERE message
  • Received peer reply DPD R-U-THERE-ACK message

Be aware of the following:

  • The DPD R-U-THERE message is received and its sequence number matches the outgoing DPD reply messages.

If the Secure Firewall ASA sends a DPD R-U-THERE-ACK message without first receiving a DPD R-U-THERE message from the peer, it is likely experiencing a security breech.

  • The received DPD R-U-THERE-ACK message's sequence number is matched with previously sent DPD messages.

If the Secure Firewall ASA did not receive a DPD R-U-THERE-ACK message within a reasonable amount of time after sending a DPD R-U-THERE message to the peer, the tunnel is most likely down.

Recommended Action None required.

Error Message %ASA-5-717013: Removing a cached CRL to accommodate an incoming CRL. Issuer: issuer

Explanation When the device is configured to authenticate IPsec tunnels using digital certificates, CRLs may be cached in memory to avoid requiring a CRL download during each connection. If the cache fills to the point where an incoming CRL cannot be accommodated, older CRLs will be removed until the required space is made available. This message is generated for each purged CRL.

  • issuer—The name of the device that removes cached CRLs

Recommended Action None required.

717014

Error Message %ASA-5-717014: Unable to cache a CRL received from CDP due to size limitations (CRL size = size , available cache space = space )

Explanation When the device is configured to authenticate IPsec tunnels using digital certificates, CRLs may be cached in memory to avoid requiring a CRL download during each connection. This message is generated if a received CRL is too large to fit in the cache. Large CRLs are still supported even though they are not cached. This means that the CRL will be downloaded with each IPsec connection, which may affect performance during IPsec connection bursts.

Recommended Action None required.

717015

Error Message %ASA-3-717015: CRL received from issuer is too large to process (CRL size = crl_size , maximum CRL size = max_crl_size )

Explanation An IPsec connection caused a CRL that is larger than the maximum permitted CRL size to be downloaded. This error condition causes the connection to fail. This message is rate limited to one message every 10 seconds.

Recommended Action Scalability is perhaps the most significant drawback to the CRL method of revocation checking. To solve this problem, the only options are to investigate a CA-based solution to reduce the CRL size or configure the Secure Firewall ASA not to require CRL validation.

717016

Error Message %ASA-6-717016: Removing expired CRL from the CRL cache. Issuer: issuer

Explanation When the Secure Firewall ASA is configured to authenticate IPsec tunnels using digital certificates, CRLs may be cached in memory to avoid requiring a CRL download during each connection.

Recommended Action Make sure that an enrollment URL is configured with this trustpoint, ensure connectivity with the CA server, then retry the request.

717018

Error Message %ASA-3-717018: CRL received from issuer has too many entries to process (number of entries = number_of_entries , maximum number allowed = max_allowed )

Explanation An IPsec connection caused a CRL that includes more revocation entries than can be supported to be downloaded. This is an error condition that will cause the connection to fail. This message is rate limited to one message every 10 seconds.

  • issuer—The X.500 name of the CRLs issuer
  • number_of_entries—The number of revocation entries in the received CRL
  • max_allowed—The maximum number of CRL entries that the Secure Firewall ASA supports
