VPN life time setting help

whiteford · ‎04-16-2008

Hi, I have a few VPN's connected to my Cisco Concentrator and ASA. The thing is I have never set the life time on the tunnel on the regional sites configs (877's, 1841's), althought on the ASA and Concentrator I have.

What problem's would this create and should I set this?

e.g. Set security-association lifetime seconds 28800

If you are not configuring the lifetimes in all the devices but go with default means not a problem. However, if you configure lifetime in any one of the devices and go with default in other, then you will be getting the issues.
