Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • When outbound IPsec traffic receives no response from the peer.

On-demand DPD responds to outbound traffic with no peer response. Periodic idle probing, rekey lifetime and NAT keepalives serve different conditions; sending a keepalive alone is not a DPD acknowledgment.
