One funny thing is that we see collisions on the ingress port on one side,
which bothers me because it is connected to a switch. I don't have access to
either endpoint myself, so have queries in to check the duplex settings on the
switch and the device. I also thought the SA's may not be synced, but am told
that both endpoints are driven by the same mgmt station, and my understanding
is that SA lifetime in 4.1 is a policy-wide parameter rather than a tunnel
specific parameter, so they claim there is no way that they could be different
with respect to each other. Is there a command line query that can be run to
check?
Thanks,
j

hi,
do you see any error-message on one of the 2 vpn-endpoints?
check the SA-lifetimes.
cheers
