             Summary: Some S2S VPN configurations fail to establish a connection
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-10010
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-10010
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: Virtual Router
    Affects Versions: 4.10.0.0
            Reporter: Will Stevens


I am not sure if a regression was introduced with this PR #2062, but we have 
found issues with this configuration now that we have it in production.

The core of this change is to change the S2S VPN config from {{auto=start}} to 
{{auto=route}}. Read more about this setting here: 
https://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/ConnSection
We found there to be issues when using {{auto=start}} for both sides of the 
connection as there was problem negotiating the connection. Instead the 
{{auto=route}} config will only establish a connection once there is an attempt 
to send traffic over the connection. In order to attempt to open the connection 
as soon as the VPN connection is configured, a ping to the other side of the 
connection has been added to establish the connection.
