Thanks for replying so quickly Guus.
I will try increasing the re-keying time to 86400, and am now running
the servers in debug 5 mode logging to a file, so will get all output.
Its interesting what you say about UDP being given lower priority, the
two end points of this VPN are actually within the same data center, but
are being routed within the DC's core routers (because its going between
2 different public IP ranges).
When I did a download speed test over HTTP over the VPN, I started to
see replay window errors (default setting of 128).
Does that perhaps suggest that the DC's routers are re-ordering UDP
traffic?
Thanks
Tom
