How to Identify IPsec Phase 2 on Specific Phase 1

cisco-asaipsecvpn

I want to find out which phase 2 is associated with a particular phase 1 on cisco ASA device.

There are several phase 1 and phase 2 on the device. With the following commands, I can see the active SAs :

   show crypto isakamp sa details
   show crypto ipsec sa details

But there is only one active for each phase. The configuration itself does not explicitly say "This phase 2 is associated with this phase 1" like Fortigate 60D from Fortinet for example.

Referring to this doc on cisco website, I understand VPNs tunnels are established after trying each phase configuration until a match is found.

Is there a way to know on cisco ASA devices which phase 2 is associated with a particular phase 1 ?

Another useful vpn show command is:

show vpn-sessiondb detail l2l

ASA Command Reference Guide

This should give you what you are looking for. This command gives quite a bit of information for each tunnel that is negotiated. This can also be utilized to view other types of VPNs. The syntax may be slightly different depending on code version.
