Hi Team,

The similar scenarios are beautifully handled by Redirect RFC-5685.
The Redirect RFC emphasize on client-gateway terminology, which is typical
use of Redirect mechanism in IKEv2 where Gateway redirects client to another
less loaded gateway but at the same time RFC is also applicable to
router-router scenario when one router decides to off-load all existing
IKEv2 sessions to another gateway when it goes down for maintenance etc.
I totally agree with Paul.

Best regards,
Raj
