Open Radar

 
Summary:
If the iOS simulator is open, and I change my VPN connection, network requests will fail with NSURLDomainError -1005 until I restart the simulator. This applies to ALL network requests in the simulator, not just those specific to my app.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect Mac to Wifi
2. Launch the iOS Simulator
3. Open Mobile Safari and visit a http://apple.com (this is successful)
4. Connect the Mac to VPN
5. Attempt to refresh the webpage that is open in Mobile Safari (not successful)

Expected Results:
I would expect that the iOS Simulator would be able to support changes to the VPN connection without needing to be restarted.

Actual Results:
When attempting to refresh the page, the following error message is displayed:

"Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost."

Now, do the following steps:
1. Quit the iOS Simulator
2. Re-open the iOS Simulator
3. Lauch Mobile Safari and visit http://apple.com

After restarting the simulator, the network connection again works as expected.

Version:
iOS Simulator Version 8.0 (550.1)
Xcode Version 6.0 (6A313)
OS 10.9.4

Notes:
I believe that under Xcode 5, the simulator was able to handle dynamic changes to the VPN configuration without requiring a reboot.
