        In Fedora's Bugzilla:
        
                https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=403661
        
        No action since I filed it last November.  I have to run vpnc by
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        hand on those connections where DPD is an issue.

The other thing I've noticed about this issue is that nobody on the
NetworkManager team ever sees fit to comment when it comes up on the
list.

        The other vpnc features that it would be good to be able to
        configure are NAT traversal mode selection and IPsec obfuscated
        secret support.
