Gateway Monitoring…

[Com DAC]

Are there any benefits to having gateway monitoring enabled besides being able to graph the gateway response time/availability? Are there any downsides?

Thank you,

without gateway monitoring there is no way for pfsense to failover in mult-wan systems.

i don't know of any downsides with the latest version of pfsense. in previous versions the gateway monitoring was unstable in certain circumstances

Thank you I didn't think of failover situations.
