Hello Community,
Am I the only one or does this sound familiar? If it does, does anyone have suggestions on how to deal with it.
We make use of a number of hosts and networks in AWS. We connect to them using IPsec tunnels. Setting these up with the UTM is simple enough. But, sometimes a tunnel goes down. I haven't been able to find the cause. And since these tunnels are set up redundant (in our case double redundant) in most cases I don't even notice. But if I do notice, every time it seems to help to manually disconnect and connect again. This works, only because I have these double redundant tunnels because disabling will stop both tunnels of a connection (connection meaning the redundant tunnel from one of my outbound connections).
The best solution would obviously be that Sophos retries broken connections more often (Sophos seems to retry because if I do nothing, problems also go away, but only after a long time). It would also help if you could retry a single broken tunnel from the GUI.
But since it will be a while before Sophos follows up on this, it would be great if someone could tell me how I can force a reconnect for a single tunnel. I would like to create a script that checks for broken connections and retries them. And reports by e-mail. But is it even possible?
Thanks for all suggestions (or moral support), Jan
