Hi all

I have 2 VPN tunnels going from 2 Routerboard 530's.
One via ADSL
one Via Diginet (Leased Line)

The ADSL one is the mainvpn
The Diginet the backup one.


This is the error message i keep getting when the mainvpn drops and redials.

MainVPN: Terminating... - old tunnel is not closed yet.

Any ideas why this would be happening ?

Hi, its a bug,

I reported it to support mail and I hope they will do their best....
I have similar scenario, but there is bug with disconecting old tunnels, I asked for solution on MT training in Prague, but answer was, so I may report it.
Dont use MT's PPTP or L2TP tunnels for high availibility secure links over networks... Its a way to hell now...

My scenario is 10 MT servers, each have 2 ISP's, so there are two tunnels between them (full mesh). But on one link failed, old tunnel is not disconnected and new one cannot be established (rule anly one)...

Also have this issue
CCR1009, 6.39.3
sometime l2tp tunnel cannot connect:

l2tp-out1: initializing...
l2tp-out1: connecting...
l2tp-out1: terminating... - session closed
l2tp-out1: disconnected...
l2tp-out1: initializing...
l2tp-out1: connecting...
l2tp-out1: terminating... - old tunnel is not closed yet
l2tp-out1: disconnecting...
l2tp-out1: initializing...
l2tp-out1: connecting...
l2tp-out1: terminating... - session closed
l2tp-out1: disconnected...

Only reboot can help.

Any answer from Mikrotik?
When will you fix this bug?
