IPSec disconnected after lifetime, takes about two minutes to reconnect

mik256 · April 10

I am having an issue where Zyxel initiated IPSec tunnel is periodically disconnected after lifetime period and gets reconnected after about 2 minutes of disruption.

What can I do to have the tunnel stable?

Hi @mik256

You can extend the Phase1 and Phase2 SA life time and verify the VPN connection again.

The default phase 1 SA life time is 86400 seconds, as shown below:

I have been playing with lifetime for a few weeks now. Trying different combinations on both ends (equal, higher/lower on one side)..

Hi @mik256

Thank you for your comment. Can we check your firewall via the remote Web-GUI? We will send you a private message later, so please check your inbox. Thank you.
