Does openfortivpn exit with an error? Perhaps the VPN has not been disconnected in the first place. Stopping and restarting your WiFi just overwites any openfortivpn changes to routing and DNS settings. |
Hi @DimitriPapadopoulos, to answer your question, openfortivpn does not exit with an error. The rationale for my question are similar to these use-cases:
* Assuming these applications continuously attempt reconnecting with the services they were interacting with on the VPN. My experience so far:12 Oct: 13 Oct: |
Not all use cases are equivalent. They should be addressed separately, each one in its ticket. Switching the WiFi off/on is quite different from a choppy, unstable internet connection. My experience with choppy, unstable internet connections is that there is a timeout somewhere in lower network layers, dependent on the machine and in my case around 30 s. With network blackouts below below that timeout, missing packets are re-received and resent, and openfortivpn does not even notice or have to reconnect. It just takes time for all packets in these lower layers to be re-sent, which means the network appears to be frozen, perhaps for up to 30 s in addition to the initial 30 s of the network blackout. Attempting to address all the different problems in a single ticket will only create confusion. |
openfortivpn version: 1.20.5
Is anyone having the experience where the "persistent" feature (also called connection keep-alive) not working?
Tried to test this feature by disconnecting my wifi, and reconnecting 30 seconds or so later, and found that my openfortinet VPN connection isn't re-established 😔.
I'm executing openfortivpn with persistence as so:
