[cisco-bba] VPDN session stuck in wiccn state ?

[Andy Saykao]

Much appreciate your help Tony.

Not sure if it's from all their LAC's or a subset, but will keep this in
mind.

Thanks.

Hi Andy,

I've pretty much out of ideas now then, sorry :(

If you've opened a case with TAC, you may just have to wait for them to
sort it out with you. I would press them to find out what that state of
"wiccn" means.. If it's not a valid state, then it's coming from within
the IOS code somewhere and they should be able to trace it and find
where. Keep requesting escalations on your case until it gets to someone
who knows/cares.

You could try downgrading to a different IOS, unless you definitely need
something in the special release you are using to make it work.

If it's only tunnels from one provider, is it from all of their LAC, or
a subset of their LAC ?


regards,
Tony.
