I have been troubleshooting call durations in to our remote access environment.
The environment is as follows Client PC VPN Client SW with modem (analog or BR ISDN) dial in to AS5300 then establish encrypted session through VPN Concentrator 3030.
I have configured dialer idle-timeout to the point where the only traffic that is considered interesting is ESP traffic.
However I am still seeing intermittent traffic (encrypted) that is managing to keep the remote access session up. I have now noticed that VPN concentrator is configured to send IKE keepalives which seems to be the culprit for prolonging calls.
I'm not sure how relevant IKE Keepalives are to this type of usage and what impact disabling them will have on the environment.
Any suggestions/pointers greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
