-Hi,
-I have established a VPN between two ZyWALL 5 routers in two different

-My configuration looks like this:
-
-Branch A
-- ZyWALL WAN IP- xxx.xxx.xxx.86
-- Key Management - IKE
-- Local IP Address - 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.253
-- Remote IP Address - 192.168.10.1 - 192.168.10.253
-- Encap. - Tunnel
-- IPSec Algorithm - ESP DES SHA1
-- Secure Gateway Address - xx.xx.xxx.146
-- Authentication Method - Pre-Shared Key
-- My IP Address - 0.0.0.0

-Branch B
-- ZyWALL WAN IP- xxx.xxx.xxx.86
-- Key Management - IKE
-- Local IP Address - 192.168.10.1 - 192.168.10.253
-- Remote IP Address - 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.253
-- Encap. - Tunnel
-- IPSec Algorithm - ESP DES SHA1
-- Secure Gateway Address - xx.xx.xxx.86
-- Authentication Method - Pre-Shared Key
-- My IP Address - 0.0.0.0

Was it a typo, or do you really have .86 as the address of the Wan and gateway
on Branch B? If the latter, then make the WAN IP .146 for starters.

When I setup a Zywall, I used the remote IP subnet, not range ie 192.168.10.0
and 255.255.255.0 I also used MD5 not SHA1.... hth
