[Users] Problem with Cisco interoperation

Hi,

        I'm having some problems with freeswan talking to a cisco 7200.
I'm initiating 112 tunnels (The other side won;t aggregate them for some
reason) to the Cisco. The tunnels all intiate wthout any problems. (Is
there anyway to speed this up by the way?). And traffic passes over the
problems without any issues.

        However after some random amount of time the tunnels stop
working. If I setup a ping job to constantly ping soething down the
other end of the tunnel then the tunnel will stay up for ever. So it
seems like some sort of "I haven't seen any traffic" timer is expiring
at the Cisco end.

        Has anyone seen anything similar to this behaviour before? I
unfortunately don't have acces to the cisco end so debugging has been
difficult.

Config on freeswn end is

config setup
        interfaces=%defaultroute
        klipsdebug=none
        plutodebug=all
        plutoload=%search
        plutostart=%search
        uniqueids=yes
        overridemtu=1412

conn %default
        keyingtries=0

conn usgw10.0.0.0
        rightsubnet=10.0.0.0/16
        also=commongw
        auto=start

conn commongw
        right=x.x.x.x
        rightnexthop=%defaultroute
        leftnexthop=%defaultroute
        left=y.y.y.y
        authby=secret
        pfs=no
        ikelifetime=8h
        keylife=8h

the cisco end is like so

crypto isakmp policy 10
 encr 3des
 hash md5
 authentication pre-share
 group 5
 lifetime 28800
crypto isakmp key ***** address x.x.x.x
crypto ipsec transform-set APAC esp-3des esp-md5-hmac
crypto mib ipsec flowmib history tunnel size 200
crypto mib ipsec flowmib history failure size 200

crypto map Office_map 3 ipsec-isakmp
 description Melbourne
 set peer x.x.x.x
 set transform-set APAC
 match address 102
