Happened again. Here is part of the VPNMON log from the start of the internet down, at about 10:29pm, to the end of the log:
I was looking through the system log and it looks like the VPN connection is trying to restart many times. I had "Connection Retry attempts" set to 15. If VPNMON is in use, that really should be set to 1, since VPNMON is handling the retries.
I'll set all VPN slots to have a retry of 1 and see how it goes.
So, in general, the automatic starts should be set to no and the retry attempts should be set to 1. In the Custom Configuration section, my VPN provider has "resolv-retry infinte" specified. Not sure if that causes any issues. I'll post an update if/when my internet connection goes down again...probably sooner than later.
