Cisco IOU IPsec Site to Site VPN with RSA key

Physical Diagram is still same as before. Since pre-shared key ipsec is already configured and working properly. The only thing needs to do is to change authentication method and import peer’s public key. Of course have to generate your own private key and public first. Also, time on both devices will have to be synchronized.

R1(config)#crypto key generate rsa general-keys label R1
The name for the keys will be: R1
Choose the size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048 for your
  General Purpose Keys. Choosing a key modulus greater than 512 may take
  a few minutes.

How many bits in the modulus [512]:

Cause :
Basically, it is incorrectly RSA key caused decryption failed on the peer. After review all steps again, I found I was using show crypto key mypubkey rsa label R1 to generate key. It looks like router only accept the key which generated by full domain name. To fix issue, we need to use crypto key generate rsa to generate R1.test.com key. After re-generate key again, all looks fine.
