Hi All

I am labbing up a couple of 1800s to use in a stateless HA pair for
IPSec/Easy VPN. At the moment I am using crypto maps.

Targeting the HSRP address of the 1800s, my 871 Easy VPN client detects
when the tunnel goes down as a result of the HSRP VIP changing to the
secondary 1800 when an interface fails on the primary 1800. When the
interface comes back and preempt causes the HSRP roles to change back, the
871 client again detects the dead peer and recreates a tunnel to the active
1800.

I am wondering though if this can be done with the IPSec Client? I am
connecting to the same group with the IPSec client and when I failover the
HSRP routers the clients tunnel eventually just times out but it does not
automatically try and reconnect like the 871 does. Should I expect this to
occur or is this automatic reconnection unique to hardware VPN tunnels?

Thanks
Ben
