## Symptoms

- * Traffic from Remote Access client failing to match any Security Gateway's encryption domain.
* "Partial overlapping encryption domain" error messages upon policy installation / verification.
* The signature line in trac.log on the client side is:  
  \[ 1636 1380\]\[25 Mar 19:38:16\]\[TR_CL_SETTING_MGR\] TrClSettingManager::UpdateTopologyInConf: ERROR: not supported: encdom id 1 is partially overlapping with encdom id 0  
* Full fwmonitor string is observed in the connection. (i , I, o, O)

## Cause

**Encryption domain overlap exists between different Remote Access community encryption domains.**

If the Remote Access encryption domain overlaps, for example, suppose network x.x.x.x exists in both Remote-1-internal and Remote-2-internal and network y.y.y.y only exists in Remote-1-internal, then you'd have partial overlapping.

Either ALL of Remote-2-internal should be a proper subset of Remote-1-internal, or they can be identical (each is a full subset of the other).

Refer to the diagrams at the bottom of the page.
