Symptom


  • The Prisma SD-WAN VPNs are in down state
  • The VPN status on the CLI (dump vpn status VpnID=1719xxxxxxxxxxx)  shows "out of shared secret key."


Environment


  • Prisma SD-WAN
  • ION Devices
  • VPNs


Cause


  • The ION device is offline for more than 72 hours and cannot update the keys from cloud controller. 
  • OR
  • NTP is misconfigured causing the ION not to update the keys from cloud controller.

Note: The shared key is only valid for 72 hours.



Resolution


  1. Check the NTP on both ends of ION devices (Branch and DC).
  2. Make sure the time matches on both ION devices. If they do not match, check the configuration and correct the same.
