What I would do before resetting anything, I would execute the diag sniffer packet command and specify ports 500 or 4500 between the 2 vpn peers. See if IKE or even ESP is being passed Qs: Have you ensure that NAT is not an issues and if any NAT-transversal timeout? execution of diag vpn ike gateway will provide details on if IKE std or NAT-T extension is being used Next, have you ensure that DPD is actively being used? Once again execution of the diag vpn ike gateway cmd, will provide details on DPD and counters and you can monitor the interval I would also issues the diag debug app ike -1 when all stops and to try to identify what side is causing the issues. You can use my link at the following blog for L2L vpn t-shooting. http://socpuppet.blogspot.com/2013/10/site-2-site-routed-vpn-trouble-shooting.html

That could be a big issue. I would enable dpd on the policy and use ikev2 e.g edit Montecchio set dpd enable set dpd-retryinterval 20 end I also rfc1918 address but is this output sanitized? Or are you using NAT anywhere on the peer-vpn src address?

Mmmm... I don' t understand very well In site A fortigate has public ip and connect to site B to public IP In site B, public ip is on provider' s router. Fortigate is connected to this router with wan port configured like " internal" for provider' s router. Wan1 in fortigate is 172.16.10.2 that is internal lan of provider' s router. To do this in fortigate, I also configured a static route from 0.0.0.0/0 to 172.16.10.1 (provider' s router, that is gateway) On this router I configure port forwarding rules from any to fortigate, port 500 and 4500 udp. No NAT configured in policy rules in both sites. In policy rule is configured allow inbound and allow outbound No NAT Traversal configured DPD is enabled on both fortigate!! Maybe provider router issue?

If your being NAT' than you need to enable NAT-T and possible adjust any Nat timeouts. Do you have NAT-T enabled? set nattraversal enable

enabled nat traversal but DPD won' t work. I recreate phase 1 and phase 2 and policy too. The strange thing is that with other vpn site, with identical firewall (fortigate 50B) and configurations, i have no problems. I think that the problem is the provider router. I have to check with another router.
