Hi,

i've two openbsd firewalls running

1x OpenBSD 4.9 (amd64) in our office
1x OpenBSD 5.0 (amd64) in our co location.

we have a vpn set up between both locations via /etc/ipsec.conf
isakmpd is setup to not read any konfiguration files:

=== /etc/rc.conf.local ===
isakmpd_flags="-4 -K -v"
=== /etc/rc.conf.local ===

now from time to time the vpn becomes "unavailable",
though the established security association is visible via ipsecctl -sa.

i don't find anything suspucios in the log only "quick mode done"

=== /etc/ipsec.conf ===
ike active esp from $local_net to   $remotenet   peer $remotepeer \
        main auth hmac-sha1  enc aes group modp1024\
        quick auth hmac-sha1 enc aes group modp1024\
        psk MyPsKMyPsKMyPsKMyPsKMyPsKMyPsKMyPsKMyPsKMyPsKMyPsK
=== /etc/ipsec.conf ===

are there any hints what would be the best to debug next?
as till now i didn't see a pattern there.

delete the ruleset manually by  solves the probleme temporarily
which could be needed more often when forced.

===
ipsecctl -d -f /etc/ipsec.conf; ipsecctl -f /etc/ipsec.conf
