So I am working on a WAN that simulates the transfer of data between companies and cloud providers. One of the requirements for the project is having HSRP failover for the two routers at the edge of the cloud network, the other requirement to have vpn access between networks and cloud. I can get both to work individually, I have the VPN set up and before that HSRP worked fine, now the problem is that when packets head through the tunnel they expect to land at the main router. I added a seconds peer to the map which is the back up router, but it refuses to switch to that peer to open the tunnel. I’ve read online that this is because packet tracer doesn’t support DPD(Dead Peer Detection) so my question is; is this even possible?

Hey has anyone configured a VPN that could failover to another router using the same tunnel or crypto map? I’m making a company and a cloud network, simulating something like AWS. The cloud has two routers a main and a backup. The backup works perfectly until I add the VPN into the mix. Since apparently packet tracer doesn’t support DPD(Dead Peer Detection) it doesn’t switch to the second peer in the crypto map when I turn off main and the packets drop. Any ideas?
