Symptoms

TMM might crash when changing the IKE peer config. It can happen with either IKEv1 or IKEv2 (TMM config crash).

Impact

Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.

Conditions

This occurs when making changes to IPsec tunnels that causes the configuration to become invalid. For example, changing ISAKMP phase1 from SHA-1 to MD5 results in an invalid configuration. Note: This occurs in the GUI only. The tmsh 'create' command does not cause this core.

Workaround

You can use tmsh to make the affected configuration changes... this occurs in the GUI only. The tmsh 'create' command does not cause this core.

Fix Information

TMM no longer crashes when changing the IKEv1 or IKEv2 peer config, even if the changes are not valid for the configuration.
