Thank you very much for that insight, that indeed seems to have solved
the issue! We also had a connection to another site with dpddelay = 20s
and dpdtimeout = 60s. Increasing that timeout to 120s seems to have
helped against multiple "DPD: No response from peer - declaring peer
dead" messages per day.

Thanks!

Andreas
