How do I get the VPN tunnel to start automatically after reboot? I am connecting a Cisco 857W at our branch office to our main office pix 515E. I am using the SDM to create the tunnels with pre shared keys. When i start the branch office router the tunnel is down and i cant ping anything from the main office. I can sdm into the branch office router and i see the vpn tunnel is down. I click test vpn tunnel and I have the router generate traffic. Within a minute I get a popup that says tunnel is up and everything works fine until the router is rebooted. Is there a statement I can add to my config that will automatically initialize the vpn tunnel on startup?
