IP Sec Problems with Tunnel

[ChrisM]

Hi everybody i´m wondering a bit about my IPSec Tun.

Here is my config Lan on the Main Site: 192.168.0.0/24 255.255.255.0
Lan on the Remote Site: 192.168.1.0/24 255.255.255.0

And this works!

IP Sec is configured with static IP´s.

But after the 24h reconnect by my ISP

The Tun has gone and not started again.

Anyone could help?

Do you have dynamic IPs on your WANs?

Hi Hoba,

first: thx for that reply.

After 3 h of debugging i found out whats going on:

I replaced an older Linksys WRT54 GL with an embedded pfsense and keep using it as "switch".
But i forgot to turn of the keepalive check of the PPTP VPN on the Linksys.
So it restarted after 5 min. again and again.

Now the tunnel is stable. And my users are happy. Finally puuuhhhh

I´ll keep an eye on this for about 4 more hours but i think i solved the Problem.

After all that trouble i forgot to say: pfsense on embedded systems is such a great product. keep on with that outstanding work.

Chris
