VPN Client connection failing after restoring Laptop from Hibernate

[lunzet]

I am running newest vpn client 4.0.2D on Win2k SP3 and connecting via VPN normally works fine. Only when returning the Laptop from hibernation it cannot establish a connection as it fails to establish the secure channel - see log entry here -->

Phase 1 SA deleted before first Phase 2 SA is up cause by "PEER_DELETE-IKE_DELETE_UNSPECIFIED"

Stopping & starting the cisco vpn service does not help in this scenario.

Any ideas where to look at?

Thx,

Thomas

When you go into hibernate mode your tunnel is actually torn down. Check your head-end device to verify. When the PC comes out of hibernate that PC thinks there is still a tunnel there due to the way hibernate mode acts. You have all the indicators from the PC side that it is there but it is not. The head-end deveice sees the attempt at reconnection w/o negotiation. Off the top of my head I do not know of a way to keep a tunnel established will a PC is in hibernate mode. Anybody out there know different? I took my best guess

Interesting question. I have the same problem with a Movian VPN client that is installed on a PDA with WindowsCE. If the PDA goes to sleep the VPN terminates at the VPN box and the client thinks it is still up when it awakes.

Maybe Cisco could shine a light out here???
