Description Mark Gray 2020-12-17 16:10:01 UTC 
Description of problem:

ovs-monitor-ipsec gives unexpected "is outdated" messages in logs.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):4.7

How reproducible:

This seems to happen frequently but only when tunnels configurations are changed (e.g. at cluster startup)

Steps to Reproduce:

2. View logs on node at /var/log/openvswitch/ovs-monitor-ipsec.log

Actual results:
