Model: ER707-M2  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.1

I have a setup with three sites, using 2 ER605 and one ER707 routers. The interconnect through IPSEC, which is fine and will automatically reconnect if any of the sites would have a short outage.

Also, I have configured PPTP VPN connections from to sites to the third because some traffic needs to be routed through this site to the internet. This specific connection will drop every now and then (since the third site has a consumer internet connection I assume that the modem reconnects somtimes) but will never reconnect automatically. I have to disable and enable the connection through the Omada console.

 

Is there a quicker way of initiating the reconnect, e.g. through a CLI script or something similar that could be prepared and run?

 

Tom

Hi @tgoschuetz 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

So to speak that the router is a PPTP client?

  @Clive_A yes, one of the ER605 and the ER707 are clients, one site with an ER605 is the PPTP server. This is also the one that has a consumer internet access, so no fixed IP though it would only change when the modem would restart which is rarely the case. We have a dynDNS record for this site to cover for the non static IP.

 

I think one cannot really prevent the PPTP from disconnecting, I am just wondering why it does not reconnect automatically or whether there is a quicker way of 'resetting' it.
