The device has 4 VPN Gateways
two are site to site, client role. Two are dynamic peer to site, server role.
4 connections are setup.
One up and running, other three (with related gateways) are disabled and unconnected.
Neverthless...
I have a "top 5 DPD fail" and "top 5 connectivity fail" for disabled gateways and connection.
So this is not correct, nevertheless not totally wrong.
However.
how on earth, or under which chemical substance the software tells me that there are two site to site tunnels connected?

Seriously?

Device is USG20-VPN (now rebadged USG 50 Flex, still cannot buy it) installed first time with 4.x firmware (don't remember which one, sorry).

    Hi @mMontana
    This symptom fixed in ZLD5.32 firmware.
    Please have a try to upgrade to latest version and check if it is helpful.

    As my experience is not fixed.I've seen the issue after updating to 5.32.

    I am not aware if it was present before the update.
    I verified with two different browser, opening the interface after enabling inPrivate/Incognito mode.

    As answered the first time, customer did not allow me to remote connection. I'll try again for permission but I'm not confident for a positive outcome

    Answer for remote access is "no" and it's final.

    Update.
    Counter reached 420 VPN connections out of 20 max available; in fact, there was only one Site-to-site connection enabled and nailed up; firmware was still 5.32 as screenshot, standby partition contained 5.32WK41.
    The only connection worked everytime, maybe the counter got up anytime it falled and back up; I was trying to add a VPN connection on the same gateway and was not working.

    Rebooted with 5.32WK41.
    Now I re-created the same VPN connection on the existing gateway it from scratch and started at first shot (I tried hard to understand why it was not working).
    Need to try to re-add also some other objects that are needed, standby partition was updated several weeks ago but never rebooted the firewall.
    Anyway, I'll keep posted for updates.

    After more than 100hrs of uptime, the VPN count is stable.
    Even if a connection is forcely closed (1 gateway, 2 connections/subnets), the VPN count is kept consistent (only 2 tunnels).
    Still on 5.32 WK41 firmware..
  • I had faced a similar issue, and I thought it was a generic glitch, so I gave it a rest.  :'(
