[strongSwan] Random IPSEC IKE1 Dropping

[Turnbough, Bradley E.]

Can anyone help me out with this issue?  I know I have very few details to go off of, but at this point, I don't know what else is needed and what needs to be provided.

Thanks,

Brad

Subject: Random IPSEC IKE1 Dropping

Hello All,

I'm currently running this config on an active strongswan box.  I am running CentOS 6.5 (fully patched) along side of strongswan version "Linux strongSwan U5.0.4/K2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_6"

We upgraded a while back from a version that still used pluto to this new version (which uses charon)  We've started to experience random conn drops (primarilly on sa-01 and sa-05.  The only way to resolve this that I've found is to perform a 'service strongswan restart' This is not the only conn which experiences this, so I'm thinking this may be a configuration issue or a bug.  The problem is, is I don't necessarily know much about ipsec.  I'm hoping someone can help me out.  Can anyone?  Please?
