Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • You have two computers that are running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.

  • Each computer is behind a separate Network Address Translation (NAT) firewall.

  • You connect the computers by using an Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) connection that uses Internet Key Exchange version 2 (IKEv2) tunnel mode.

  • You install the update that is described in Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) article 2248145 on one of the computers.

In this scenario, the IPsec connection fails. More specifically, no data packets are routed through the IPsec connection, and the IPsec connection is negotiated repeatedly.
