VPN' s keep dropping out

We have a VPN from Cisco PIX' s to a fortigate 300A the VPN keeps dropping out and we need to bring it manually each time. It carries on working until it times out, i guess when there is no traffic for a period of time. Previously the VPN was PIX to PIX which worked fine. This is the second issue we have had with PIX to Fortigate VPN' s. Any ideas? Chris

In the words of Maxwell Smart, agent 86 " Ahh, the old ' set keepalive enable' in phase2, eh?"
