Hi CloudStack Users and Developers, we’re currently implementing a new CloudStack environment based on 4.8.0.1 (System VM Template is 4.6) with XenServer 6.5 SP1 and all the latest updates.
So far everything works as expected we only have an issue regarding the stability of Site-to-Site VPNs within VPCs and we think ACL’s. I’ll try to describe the problem and behaviour: A connected and working S2S VPN switches to disconnected after some time (usually a few hours). In relation to that the VPC seems to “forget” it’s ACLs. Restarting only the Network Tier (a VM lives within) solves the issues for a short period of time (1-3 hours). The state of the VPN switches to connected and the S2S VPN is working again. Also pinging from the VM to any public address is working again. Strange is, that for example browsing to a website is working all the time. Isolated networks however work like a charm. We tried to solve this issue through several tests. We changing the network setup and reducing the complexity just to get this behaviour isolated. But it’s always the same. We also tried several different connections to different customer gateways (firewalls) and a VPC-VPN to VPC-VPN connection to another CloudStack deployment (based on Version 4.5.2) without any success. In addition, we tested several setups like CentOS 6 and CentOS 7, but again always the same. We updated one installation to the master from yesterday 4.9.0.0-snapshot – again no success. We do not have any issues with version 4.5.2 – but this installation is in a different datacentre. Below you’ll find some logs – the relevant IP for this test connection is: *85.88.16.104* CloudStack 4.8.0.1 Logs (Google Docs): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1gqIjDdG1htps4p1t7m1uHSs7aNHplWp1Np83nH6e7zM IPsec Logs from the Virtual Router: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ZWvhFu2P_Wv_lF8TgYMmexeS_KDag1Mp-kmuhl8l7uU Thank you in advance for your help!
