| Doc Text: |
In Libreswan 3.13, 3.14, and 3.15, the "keyingtries=0" option for the "ipsec whack" command did not work properly. Consequently, the pluto IKE daemon stopped trying to establish the tunnels that were not immediately established if "keyingtries=0" was used. With this update, pluto tries to establish the tunnel with "keyingtries=0" indefinitely.

Adding a Regression keyword. It might be good to fix this either in 7.2.z or 7.3.0. It is not really FIPS-related but I might be quite important. note the effects are: if during negotiation failure there is a temporary problem, it will not try to connect for more than one time. If the connection is up, and the remote end sends a delete ( eg restats) the local end will not attempt to reconnect (but the remote end might) the default values is 0 (keep retrying forever) (In reply to Paul Wouters from comment #7) > the default values is 0 (keep retrying forever) Ah, that is correct (I was mistakenly looking into ipsec_pluto(8) where the default value is 3). Fixed ipsec_pluto man page upstream :) Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
