All site to site tunnels drop

[ShaunaYelverton]

We had an incident where we have site to site VPNs coming into the Palo.  The connection dropped and they would not come backup, even after dropping the VPN on both devices.  The end result was a reboot of the firewall and it came back up.  What I saw in the logs is pasted below.  Customer support just said "As we can see from the Ike manager logs the firewall is receiving the first packet for IKE negotiation which accepts and sends the response but its not getting the reply."  Both sides could ping each other. 

Ideas?

What version are you running?  The 8.1.13 release has a fix for a huge memory leak that causes symptoms very similar to if not exactly what you are experiencing.

In case anyone else is configuring PAN to Sonicwall this is how we configured. The tunnel interfaces were significantly slower and did not re-establish communication.

We are running 9.0.5, it was a misconfiguration of the tunnel between the Sonicwalls and Palo.  They stayed up for over a week though.  Thanks for the update.
