You have IPSec keepalives also. The command is "crypto isakmp keepalive".
Also, if yoou are not running a routing protocol on the IPSec tunnels why
are you using GRE ?

Subject: OT: GRE Ipsec Tunnel Keepalive

Sorry for the off topic, but I need some opinions.
I have multiple gre tunnels between sites and I use ipsec to encrypt traffic
over them. When I need something encrypted, I point a static route to the
tunnel interfaces. Works great, however, the ipsec sa expires after 24 hour,
and there is s slight delay upon re-establishment of the ipsec ike sa. I
need the ipsec sa to be permenantly established. Should I run a routing
protocol between the tunnel interfaces? Any other ideas will be appreciate.

Thanks,
