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?Start Free Trial
