Hey guys,

Just to give a quick update on this. Talked to Tier 3 guy in DTAC and what I was informed is quite disappointing, to put it bluntly. So, he told me that when it comes to VPN monitoring, supposedly, it ONLY works if its CP to CP tunnel, so say if you have cp to 3rd party, which probably 99% of customers would have, you cant even configure pop-up alert to work and here comes really odd part for me. Say even if you have cp cluster to another single gateway VPN tunnel, its not enough to even reset the tunnel via vpn tu tlist del or vpn tu command, but you would need to do cpstop on BOTH cluster members. 

O well, as disappointing as this is, if thats how it is, we just have to accept it. I still, personally, find it bit hard to believe that even pop-up alert is only possible if its strictly CP vpn tunnel.

Anyway, figured would share the info I was given. At least searching for log filter by "Key Install" would give log when tunnel may have went down, so its better than nothing. I sure hope VPN monitoring is totally revamped in R82...

Best,

Andy
