More Information

This issue occurs in the following scenario:
  • The site-to-site VPN connection is disconnected.
  • Before the disconnection is completed, a new connection is initiated by the traffic.
Because the RRAS server may hit a race condition, the routing table will end up in an inconsistent state, and TCP/IP will drop the incoming packets.
