Hi

maybe the easiest way is a script that simulates normal connections (a ping
or a tcp/80, or whatever you allow to pass thru your vpn) every second (or
every 5 or ten, try...)

for example, if you want to emulate a tcp/80:

#!/bin/sh
while thue
do
lynx -dump http://address.other.vpn.side > /dev/null
sleep 5
done

cheers
max

Subject: [FW-1] vpn keepalive

Hi all,

Does anyone know if there is a way to configure some sort of keepalive
for a site-to-site Ipsec VPN?  Some applications are sensitive to the
way that a tunnel takes a few seconds to rebuild if it hasn't been used
for awhile so they time out / disconnect.
