Ok, heres the problem.

We have 2 Firebox X2500's, both in a DVCP VPN setup, point to point, and working ok up untill a week or so ago.

Now, we get a problem where one of the boxes keeps setting the state of the IPSEC SA to Dying or Dead, and then kills off the VPN tunnel. This in turn knocks the box out (IE, instigates a reset of teh box)!
Heres the strange thing, When this box is resetting IPSEC and doign a soft restart, the Primary Box (DVCP server) also gets reset and loses its connection?

Tried a Manual IPSec VPN, still the same thing.??

It doesnt happen all the time, but happens at various points through the day, for no apparent reason and is getting bloody annoying!!

Anyone else had the same issue?

Software Version is 7.3.B1834 and is the latest one as far as I can tell

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

James.
