Read many posts over the past week on this with a lot of different answers. Some say use DPD, some not use.
I noticed, when DPD enabled, it is polled every 30 seconds in the VPN log.

Question
What is the optimal setting for DPD Delay, Retries, Action, and Keyingtries for a 24/7 tunnel?

One more thing to clarify. I am using Windows 10 native client and IPsec IKEv2

Thanks for looking.

No one.....
I guess these settings really are a mystery.

I just tested my VPN still running after 24 hours. My DPD settings used are as follows
45 seconds - 5 retries - Restart the tunnel - 10 Keyingtries

Any comments?
