IPsec: Dead Peer Detected
----------
Hello,
I looked into my routers to see why the VPN disconnects so often and I do not know if this has anything to do with it, but can you explain to me what it means?

Router manufacturer?

Who is the man. of your router?

But to answer your question here it goes.

A 'dead peer' is a peer that has failed, rebooted, or is otherwise
unable to communicate with the host using the ISAKMP SA. For
convenience's sake, we include the case where the connection between
the peers has gone down (e.g. the user hung-up, there was a routing
error, the ISAKMP SA was deleted, etc).
