Lan2Lan VPN possible bug ? was created by reetp
I have two 2820 routers with firmware 3.3.7.3_2471201

The setup is a bit complicated and I will try to simplify it.

LOCAL1 WAN1 Always on, Static IP
LOCAL1 WAN2 Active on Demand, DHCP

Currently WAN1 has failed (some idiot with a large digger took out the lines !) Today I had a Ubiquity Wifi job installed on WAN2 for backup.

REMOTE1 WAN1 Always on, Static IP

Ipsec Lan2Lan using Peer ID

I therefore need two connections, one for each Peer ID of the LOCAL WAN

LOCAL_VPN1 WAN1 only, connects to REMOTE_VPN1 Always on

LOCAL_VPN2 WAN2 only, connects to REMOTE_VPN2 Always on

Both LOCAL VPNs point to the same static IP on REMOTE. All other settings except for the Peer IDs are the same.

The first issue is that LOCAL_VPN2 does not want to pickup automatically, regardless of the WAN statuses. Setting to WAN1/2 Only does not get round this as when WAN1 is on and WAN2 is either On or On Demand, the VPN should/would still pick up.

If I reboot the router I get :

L2L[4] will dial out to x.x.x.x later...

( N.B [4] is the Profile number of LOCAL_VPN2)

I have to manually dial LOCAL_VPN2

Second, it would be an improvement to have a VPN 'Dial on Fail' sort of setting. I do not want both VPNs up at the same time. WAN2/VPN2 should pick up if WAN1/VPN1 fails.

Last point on another tack, I notice in the logs :

"Cleint L2L remote network setting is x.x.x.x/24"

That should be "Client"

Is there a bug tracker where this can be reported ?

I am willing to help debug / test anything.
