I run pfsense 1.2.3 and use 4 ipsec tunnels with dynamic endpoints.
Everything works fine, but when one endpoint continuously gets a new
WAN-IP due to numerous reconnects, raccoon stops working and has to be
started manually…
Can anyone confirm this issue ?
I have the same issue; and almost all my endpoints are pfsenses too on a
dynamic ADSL connection.
I now have built in some tricks to make racoon work a little bit more
stable :
1. the endpoints have a built-in restart at 4 AM (our provider restarts
PPPoE on 36 hours, which makes it disconnect each and every 1,5 days),
so I have setup pfSense to do the restarting.
2. I restart the racoon service on the central pfSense machine at 4:15
AM using a cronjob.
And then hope for the best :)
This helped me come through the day, as before I had to restart racoon
at least each and every 3 days... this has become a weekly task or
longer from time to time now.
Regards,
Michel
