Ipsec goes down and won't reconnect automatically
-
Hi i'm having trouble to keep one of our IPSEC tunnel connected.
The remote end is a cisco firewall and it connects just fine if i manually click on the reconnect buttonthe last entry in ipsec.log regarding this tunnel is
[2.1-RELEASE][admin]: cat /var/log/ipsec.log | grep 1978
May 18 11:38:00 50pf racoon: INFO: IPsec-SA established: ESP {local_peer_IP}[500]->{remote_peer_IP}[500] spi=261978479(0xf9d796f)
May 18 12:26:01 50pf racoon: INFO: IPsec-SA expired: ESP/Tunnel {remote_peer_IP}[500]->{local_peer_IP}[500] spi=261978479(0xf9d796f)so it's not reconnecting when it's time to renew the expired SA
this is what i see in the log when i manually reconnect it and the after that the status stays UP until the next time it's time for SA renewal
