Hi
I have an L2TP connection that is failing and I started the netsh ras logging to try and diagnose it. I am not sure if it is something on my system that is causing the tunnel to close or something from the server side. If you could, please look over the attached logs and let me know what all of this means
I am connecting through a L2TP tunnel using the following procedure
- Disable the client logging
-- netsh ras set tracing * disabled
- Save old log files
- Restart logging
-- netsh ras set tracing * enabled
- Initiate my tunnel
= Send various network traffic through the tunnel
= Intermittently the tunnel closes and I need to log back on

Here are a few excerpts from \Windows\tracing. See my contents after the logs noted with *

Specifically:

[1560] 10:35:37:265: DeviceConnect: Changing state for VPN4-1 from 1 -> 4
* What are the state values associated to?
* What is state 1 and/or 4

[1560] 10:36:46:125: PortOpen: VPN4-1
[1560] 10:36:46:125: PortOpen: successfully opened VPN4-1
* Who is issuing the disconnect? The PC I am connecting from or the server that I am going through to get to the other end of the tunnel?
