Sophos XGS Site-To-Site SSL VPN will not auto connect after reboot

Question

Hi, 
 We have a Sophos XGS 107 (Client) connecting to another unit XGS 2100 (Server) via Site-To-Site SSL VPN. 
 We noticed the Site-to-Site SSL VPN will not auto connect after the Client unit get restarted 
 When it happened, we manually on/off the SSL VPN at Client unit to initiate the dial. 
 Unfortunately the VPN logs does not show anything about whether it try to auto dial. 
 Hope someone can help. 
 
 Thanks!

Hi Mook Sin Siew , 
 As far as I know there no settings available for auto-connect to enable to disable.

 Since when you starting facing issue with SSL site to site ? it was working earlier ? Share the current firmware version of the firewalls 
 I would suggest IPSec site-to-site instead of SSLVPN site-to-site
