      Hi guys,

      I have a GRE tunnel from extraip.com and the strangest thing occurs; after rebooting the router the GRE tunnel is dead, but after reloading the firewall it comes back up. In the logging I'm unable to find any useful information, could someone please point me in the right direction? I'm als unable to detect from any status page/command if the tunnel is up or down.

      Thanks a bunch for anyone who can point me in the right direction!

        Look under Diagnostics > States and compare what you see for the remote GRE endpoint before and after reloading the filter.
