Abstract
This draft describes a method of detecting a dead IKE peer. The method, called Dead Peer Detection (DPD) uses IPSec traffic patterns to limit the number of IKE messages sent. DPD, like other keepalive mechanisms, is often necessary to perform IKE peer failover, or to reclaim lost resources.
