Hello,
I built a test environment similar to the one in KB118975
Problem: VPN is established via Headquarter (HQ) WAN1 and Branch WAN.
When WAN1 in the HQ goes down (ifdown eth1
at the "Internet" Router) the HQ initiates a new VPN Connection via WAN2, ISAKMP SA gets established but the branch router can not route because the route is still in use of the former VPN Connection to WAN1. The Branch Router does not know that HQ WAN1 is down.
After some time (about 90 seconds) the branch declares HQ WAN1 dead, deletes the old tunnel and the new connection gets established.
When WAN1 comes back online is' oK, the tunnel switches over because HQ terminates the failover tunnel and opens a new tunnel via WAN1.
Question: Is this normal or how do I tell the Branch router that the "old" tunnel is dead.
Thank You
Uwe
Testenvironment:
The whole thing is build with 5 VMs in Win10 Hyper-V using 5 virtual switches of type "private network"
My "Internet" is a Centos7 VM with 3 Nics, forwarding enabled.
HQ has Uplink Balancing with 172.21.0.1
as first, and 172.22.0.1
as second.
HQ has Uplink Monitoring with the 2 NICs of the Internet Router as Hosts defined (172.21.0.1
and 172.22.0.1
). Without this uplink Monitoring the tunnel got always established via the 2nd Interface in the Uplink Balancing group.
HQ VPN uses "Uplink Interfaces" as local Interface, Mode: initiate
Branch Remote Gateway is in Mode "respond only" without a remote address, just PSK Auth..
