Cannot get Sonicwall point to point VPN to connect

Asked by jtgerdes in Virtual Private Networking (VPN), Network Routers, Consumer Firewalls

Tags: , ,

I have a client who has a SonicWALL 2040 at their corporate office and SonicWALL TZ 170s at their stores and they all have a point to point VPN to the corp. office.  They recently moved their corporate office to a new location, but left a store behind where the corporate office used to be.  So we setup a new TZ 170 there just like the rest of the stores and pointed it (and all the other stores VPNs) to the new office's IP.  All the stores came up - except the new router at previous location of the corp offices.  The VPN setup is identical to the others and I have done everything I can think of including resetting up the VPN several times, hard resetting the new TZ 170 and setting it up all over again, and searching the logs for clues.  Here is a snippet of the logs:

From the TZ 170:

I search for INVALID_ID_INFO, but didn't really come up with anything.  Any insight would be hugely appreciated.  Thanks.
