      I am looking to monitor gateway status - to be alerted when gateways fail, but importantly too, when they come back up. 
      Am trying to understand:

      • how pfSense logs gateway events, so that these events can be 'filtered' in Zabbix
      • and if anyone has any experience how to set up these alerts in Zabbix

      I don't want to simply monitor gateway status using ping, as we set gateways to fail, based on latency / packet loss - not just basic availability

      I would appreciate any guidance / reference to any helpful links!
      Thank you in advance.

        Hey man! Follow the steps below, the language is portuguese I guess you will understand.

        https://github.com/lndgoncalves/zabbix-pfsense-gateway

        In additional I recommend you remove from the log the commands that will executed by script. Try do this in sudoers file.

        Best regards.
