This article explains how to configure IPSec VPN Site to Site between Sophos XG firewall and Pfsense firewall devices
This aritcle configured according to the following diagram:
Considering how long it has been since IKEv2 was standardized and requested by Astaro users, and considering the obvious Sophos marketing direction from UTM to XG for new sales, I would not recommend creating a corporate security plan based on having IKEv2 in UTM soon. Maybe it will happen, maybe not. I just got the following answer from Sophos Support: UTM9/SG doesn’t support IKEv2 and will not be supporting it anytime soon. We don’t even have a target date for when it will be supported on UTM9/SG. In short it definitely won’t be supported it by the time you’re looking to carry out your project in the coming months. Most modern firewalls today support IKEv2, but some (such as the Sophos XG firewall) do not. Check with your vendor to validate support. If the firewall or VPN device supports IKEv2 for remote access connections, the native Windows VPN provider can be used to establish an Always On VPN connection. This would be a good question for Sophos Sales, and many of us would be glad to hear the answer. The roadmap for 9.6 indicates improvements in the VPN, but we haven't seen any specifics. I'm personally hoping that they will substitute the new StrongSWAN Charon module for Pluto and that would bring IKEv2. IKE (Internet Key Exchange) is used to exchange connection information such as encryption algorithms, secret keys and parameters in general between two hosts (for example between two Sophos XG, a Sophos XG and a Sophos UTM, a Sophos XG and a 3rd-party appliance, or between two 3rd-party appliances).
