          after chaning the below mentioned things it works for a little longer but after 1-2 hours it again stops i.e. the racoon service

          pfs key group ->off
          DPD->off
          prefer old SA's->ticked

          by the way i have a mix up of devices 3 is Trendnet and 1 is pfsense nanobsd RC.02
          i'm quite sure there's something that i have missed.
          any helping hands is greatly appreciated
          thanks

          i love pfsense because i love open source.

              Then you can count me off  ;)

              Do you happen to have logs at this occurance time. It would be great to have also logs from another side of ipsec. If there could be answers

                Thanks Metu69salemi
                The other side has Trendnet VPN router firelwall and the log at trendnet says

                [15:40:31]**** SENT OUT  FIRST MESSAGE OF MAIN MODE ****
                [15:40:31] PAYLOADS: SA,PROP,TRANS,VID

                In my opinion the problem lies in my pfsense. The racoon just automatically stops and ipsec is down as soon as i start the racoon service , everything is back to normal.

                    Log just repeats, that phase 1 isn't correct nor found. have you triplechecked every single settings?

                        Is there system logs at the time?

                            if you're sure that p1 & p2 settings are right, then this log doesn't say anything to me.
                            It just shows that it's not liking how the racoon itself works(or not) by killing that process. maybe some developers could help reading this log

                                Hi there,
                                same issue for me : ~160 ipsec tunnels get stopped after some hours.
                                Could someone just paste the magic script to restart racoon if it's stopped (cron inside) ?

                                edit : error message
                                Sep 17 08:33:49 pfsense kernel: pid 2238 (racoon), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

                                Edit 2: new crash
                                System log message : Sep 17 19:07:56 kernel: pid 10333 (racoon), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

                                Edit 3 : no crash since I disabled badly configured tunnel … will keep you informed and check with V2 Release this week.

                                So a badly configured tunnel seems to kill racoon ... Will this help ?

                                  You might also want to open a ticket with the ipsec-tools developers:

                                    What was badly configured? I have noticed that all that had the problem are showing core dumps. Could be bad memory or bad memory management by raccoon. Are there any other packages being used?

                                      Hi,
                                      when I said "badly" it was just a way to say that one side was using an ID and not the other side.
                                      Anyway I disabled all the "misconfigured" tunnels but I still get the same problem, even with version 2.0 Release.
                                      Racoon stops once or twice a day. Fortunately some kind of cron restarts it from time to time but looks like a bug.
                                      Where can I find the core dump and who will be interested in debugging it ?

                                        The problem remains the same : once or twice a day racoon crashes. Fortunately some king of script restarts it after a while. Is the a way to stop this ?

                                            no because I don't know which script it is ! I just wanted to point out that a script does the job.
