Hard IKE_SA lifetime if rekey/reauth does not complete, as time. To avoid having an IKE/ISAKMP kept alive if IKE reauthentication or rekeying fails perpetually, a maximum hard lifetime may be specified. If the IKE_SA fails to rekey or reauthenticate within the specified time, the IKE_SA gets closed.

In contrast to CHILD_SA rekeying, over_time is relative in time to the rekey_time and reauth_time values, as it applies to both.

The default is 10% of the longer of rekey_time and reauth_time.
