I have an MDM-managed iPhone 6(iOS 12.5.1) with IPSec(IKEv2) VPN enabled. VPN connects onDemandRules were set in the profiles.
When the VPN is connected and running(both mobile and WIFI network are switched on) I switched off the mobile network, then the VPN stuck on Connecting... state. And I can always reproduce the same issue with the same operations.
I checked the log on the Console and the following messages seems suspicous:
To my understanding, it seems that when I toggled off the mobile network the VPN went into a reasserting state, and at that moment an onDemandRule was matched but was skipped due to the reasserting state.
When I tried the same operations on an iPhone 12 mini(14.2) there is no such issue.
Is it a known issue on iOS 12?
