• Keying Tries
Enter the number of repetitions for a failed connection establishment. If you enter the
value 0, the connection establishment will be attempted endlessly.
• Lifetime [min]:
Enter a period in minutes to specify the lifetime of the authentication. When the time
has elapsed, the VPN endpoints involved must authenticate themselves with each
other again and generate a new key
• DPD
When enabled, DPD (Dead Peer Detection) is used. Using DPD, it is possible to find
out whether the VPN connection still exists or whether it has aborted.
Note
Sending DPD queries increases the amount of data sent and received. This can lead
to increased costs
• DPD Period [sec]
Enter the period after which DPD requests are sent. These queries test whether or
not the remote station is still available
