After creating two IPSec tunnels (using virtual tunnel interfaces) - "show vpn ipsec status" shows:
IPSec Process Running PID: 11537 0 Active IPsec Tunnels IPsec Interfaces : eth0 (A.B.C.D)
despite the fact that there are two tunnels up and functioning correctly.
The same configuration in 1.1.7 does show 2 active tunnels.
