35.3.24

Configure Dead Peer Detection Action

Syntax [no] dpd-action <clear|hold|restart>

Context

IPsec Configuration

context

Usage Set the DPD action for this VPN gateway. The DPD action defines how the

VPN gateway should react when the peer is determined to be unreachable
(i.e., ”dead”).

Use ”no dpd-action” to disable the DPD mechanism on this VPN gateway.
When disabled, this VPN gateway will not probe the peer to check if it is
down, however, this VPN gateway will still respond to DPD probing messages
from the peer. That is, it is possible for the peer to the DPD mechanism
successfully even though DPD is disabled on this side.

Use ”show dpd-action” to show the configured DPD action setting. ”off”
is shown if DPD has been disabled on this VPN gateway.

For more information on DPD action settings, see

section 35.1.5

.

Default values This depends on the role of this VPN gateway.

Initiator: If this VPN gateway is the initiator of the tunnel, the DPD action

is by default set to restart (”dpd-action restart”)

Responder: If this VPN gateway is the initiator of the tunnel, the DPD

action is by default set to clear (”dpd-action clear”)
