Hi Team,

 

I have two ISP at branch and a single ISP at Hub. I have configured dialup tunnel on hub and static tunnel on branch side.

 

 

The issue here which i am facing is that only one tunnel is coming up at a time only, the second tunnel phase1 only showing up at branch side. Is it the expected behavior or not and if, it is expected then is there any way to make both the tunnels up. 

 

Kindly help here, below is the snapshot of the tunnels.

hi,

usually this is the expected behaviour especially when the IPsec tunnels dont have on the secondary/redundant tunnel any traffic passing.

you could create some traffic using a SLA or health-check that uses only tunnel-2 and this is def bring up phase-2.
