RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2015:2315 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Moderate: NetworkManager security, bug fix, and enhancement update 2015-11-19 10:06:58 UTC

Description Lubomir Rintel 2015-10-01 15:36:43 UTC
NetworkManager VPN plugins drop off the bus after 20 seconds of inactivity. That's too short for users with disabilities or complex authentication mechanisms (2FA with a token).

I'm also adding a regression tag, since in RHEL 7.1 the counter was not effective for the first VPN connection attempt.

No strong opinion from my side.
LGTM

Comment 4 Dan Williams 2015-10-01 17:31:28 UTC
No objections from me either; this should get handled better upstream in the future but this is an OK fix for now.

Comment 6 Vladimir Benes 2015-10-26 20:31:10 UTC
Dialog is now shown for two minutes. connecting works as expected even after longer period of time.
