      Hello, I have a curious situation.

      I have several IPSEC site tunnels to site between a Fortigate 800D (array) and in the other tips (affiliates) I have Linux Server and pfSense.
      It worked fine, years ago, so from last week to here, a very strange problem has arisen.
      Simply the tunnels are in active, but nothing happens for them, a simple ping does not work, nor traceroute, it is as if the routing table was lost, if I restart the equipment (Linux and pfSense) sometimes it works again, the times not, but intermittent.
      Looking at the Linux server log, I find this information: "closing expired child_sa", but the tunnel is up.
      Already in pfSense, which is in another branch, I saw these messages in the logs:
      "Sep 18 12:44:07 charon 13 [ENC] <1> generating ID_PROT response 0 [SA V V V V]
      Sep 18 12:44:07 charon 13 [NET] <1> sending packet: from 10.2.251.1 [500] to 10.2.251.53 [500] (156 bytes)

      Also with the tunnel in high, but no communication between the tips.

      Anyone have any idea what that might be?

      Appreciate !
