Hello John,

First of all many thanks for your fast help!

Here's my test :

1) Only roadwarrior active
- - "ping <internal server>" OK
- - "ping -l 10240 <internal server>" OK

Here's the trace :
13:39:02.049680 192.168.3.2 > 192.168.15.50: icmp: echo request

2) Roadwarrior active, static tunnel active
- - "ping <internal server>" OK
- - "ping -l 10240 <internal server>" FAILED

Here's the trace :
13:39:10.827497 192.168.3.2 > 192.168.15.50: icmp: echo request (frag

13:39:11.275483 192.168.3.2 > 192.168.15.50: (frag 16076:1376 at 1376+)

13:39:13.100017 192.168.3.2 > 192.168.15.50: (frag 16076:1376 at 6880+)
13:39:13.530420 192.168.3.2 > 192.168.15.50: (frag 16076:1376 at 8256+)
13:39:13.743678 192.168.3.2 > 192.168.15.50: (frag 16076:616 at 9632)


So it has something to do with the size. The static tunnel works without
problems (even large pings). Any other ideas? Please tell me if you need
any more info.
