Please, tell me if this happening in the primary and/or the backup. If you are using the cache mode, also dump the caches via -i and -e to see the content. > And on the expectation entries, they seem to have a lifetime > of 300 seconds.

Expectations depends on the master conntrack, if the master is released, the expectations will be released too. You may be noticing that effect. You can use `conntrack -E` and `conntrack -E exp` to verify this.
