Site-to-Site VPN - Constant DPD - Tunnel Drops

adamtodd16
Level 3
Level 3

We have approx 40 branch offices - all of which are connected to a single core site over VPN Tunnels using various gear. At one particular site, we are having issues with the tunnel dropping sporadically throughout the day - some days it happens 10 times, some days it happens none. This just randomly started happening two weeks ago, without any changes taking place. Since it started happening, I have upgraded the code to latest versions, but still the issue persists.

This particular site has a 2901 and connects back to a 2951.

Below is the output from:

debug crypto ipsec

debug crypto isakmp


Any help would be grealty appreciated!

Do you happen to have the debugs when the issue happens?

From the above logs, it seems to be OK, DPD is getting acknowledge.

If nothing has changed, I would then suspect it is an ISP issue where they could have been dropping some packets hence the DPD either doesn't get there, or the ACK doesn't get to the other side, hence the tunnel is randomly dropping.

Hello Adam,

Can you please let me know how where you able to solve this issue? I had the same issue for the past 2 weeks.
