   I have an FVS328 in our main office which I have just configured for   
   Internet access and VPN links to FVS318s at our remote offices.   
   The VPNs are working except that after a few hours they will stop   
   passing data. Attempting to ping across the VPN will not bring them back   
   up. I go into the VPN status on the FVS328 it says;   
   Phase 1:M-ESTABLISHED/Phase 2:IDLE.   
      
   It seems that because phase 1 is established it considers the vpn as   
   connected. If I click on the drop button then the line will reconnect as   
   soon as it detects any data needed to pass over the vpn.   
      
   Any help welcome.   
      
   Thanks.   
      
      
   regards
