      Hello everyone, we have 10 SG1100 with some IPSecs we are using Zabbix 6 in order to monitor our links but what about IPSec monitoring?
      We need a way to get notified when a IPSec is Down or UP.
      Can someone point me to the right direction please?
      Thank you.

        Ok After some research i did, the best practice is not monitoring the tunnel itself but some device in the end point using a ping software capable of ping multiple hosts and reporting feature or Zabbix Proxy.
        Another way is using PfSense notifications with Telegram and e-mail then download a package called Watchdog and activate the notifications option.
