5.9.0.7-17o
That is a pretty old firmware. Update to the latest 5.9.1.7 and 5.9.1.8.

I totally forgot about that. Like I said, this was a spare one I had on hand for testing and I wanted to make sure I could get the tunnel up when I factory reset the one under support since I can't log in to see its settings.

@mike-davis You also can still download Early releases and they do work well too.

Make a backup also of the settings as well just in case.

@Mike-Davis How did you end up working out this one?
-
This was one of the reasons we leave sonicwall in the company, apart of the support cost.
Now with Pfsense using VpnSite all problems disappears.

I think I left it with the keep alive going and the static IP on both ends.

Now with Pfsense using VpnSite all problems disappears.My first choice is Ubiquiti. In this case the Sonics came in under grant money and I had to use them.

Even with grant money, not sure that they are worth it

I really don't like grant money. It sounds like a good idea, but when you actually see how it works, it's such a waste. As a tax payer I would like to see the system changed. As a tax payer, I would rather see ubiquiti gear and OpenDNS go in than a SonicWall with content filtering and VPN licenses.

Oh yeah. As a tax payer all I see is open corruption. SonicWall is getting tax dollars funneled straight to them. No possible ethical reason for a real grant to exist only to fund a private company.
