      I have two gateways with failover in a gateway group, DynDNS, OpenVPN gateways etc. and receive notifications via Pushover. But I am missing many notifications in Pushover, I don't know why. I am blaming pfSense for this because all the tests for Pushover pass and otherwise I have no problems with it. Maybe it has something to do with the default gateway switchover and simultaneous sending of Pushover notifications.

      I have not found a way to select which events to send as notifications. Sometimes I need to go through all events, with some missing and some irrelevant to figure out the pattern when failovers occurred. It would be nice to view past notifications in the GUI for at least a couple of days. Is it possible? I think that such events are also in the syslog but it's even more to sort through. If notifications are generated and sent, why not keep a log of them?

        Currently I don't believe there is. You could open a feature request, I don't see anything open currently that looks to cover it.

            Or any 'easy free fast' service with free pop-up notification, every-phone-on-earth support - limited (15Gbytes ..) storage etc.
            Just naming one : a gmail account just for your pfSense.

            Depending on what you use - how many updates come along in a year, and how often you reboot pfSense - and how often a power failure is signalled by NUT (and arpwatch, acme.sh certificate auto updates etc etc) : maybe 500 mails a year ...
            Placing all these in the local config.xml is probably not the best idea.

            No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
            Edit : and where are the logs ??
