MX disconnects all VPN connections after changing things

[Robin777]

Hello all,

we have connected to one branch 10 IPSec connections.

After changing something in the Non meraki VPN config, ALL IPSec connections are disconnected.

I cannot understand this behaivor.... do you have the same problems?

Best regards

Robin

What change?

On some changes it resets wan interfaces (according to the documentation)

https://documentation.meraki.com/MX/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Appliance_Status/MX_Uplink_Settings#Sec...

"

Note: Modifying the following items will result in WAN interfaces being reset.

• State (enabled/disabled) of any WAN interface
• Addressing method (static/DHCP) of any WAN interface
• State (enabled/disabled) of any LAN interface

This will result in a loss of connectivity on both Internet uplinks for up to 2 minutes. Therefore, it is recommended to only make changes during a planned maintenance window so that disruption is minimal. "

Hello @ww ,

editing non Meraki VPN connections interrupts all non Meraki peers.

"Making changes to Non-Meraki VPN settings under Security & SD-WAN > Configure > Site-to-site VPN, might result in existing Non-Meraki VPN tunnels bouncing. We recommend that you make changes during a maintenance window to minimize the impact of Non-Meraki VPN tunnels bouncing. "

Hello, Yes this is expected behavior. It is recommended to make changes to the Non Meraki peer settings during a change window

@AMP Expected behavior or is not implemented as it could be?
Could this be a nice feature that will make less trouble meraki customers? 🙂

In the bottom right-hand corner of the dashboard is a button called "Give your feedback".  That is the best place to request new functionality.
