Procedure

  1. Configure advanced site-to-site VPN settings.
    Option Description
    Dead peer detection
    Dead peer detection (DPD) identifies inactive or unavailable IKE peers. Using IPsec traffic patterns, DPD can use a minimal number of IKE messages to confirm whether the connection is live. DPD is used to restore resources that are lost when a peer is unavailable. Selecting Enable dead peer detection reestablishes VPN tunnels on idle connections and cleans up dead VPN peers if required.
    IKE Debugging
    Enable or disable IKE debugging.
  2. Click Save.
