Any ways to monitor ipsec tunnel

[Manoj Wadhwa]

Hi Friends,

We are using GRE over IPSec tunnel on one of our routers. The router is polled every 5 min for its status using Cisco works 2000 server. Now, my question is if there is any way i can monitor the ipsec tunnel. Reason is because the Tu0 logical interface always remains up no matter the crypto session is down. I would like to get alerted when the crypto session goes down. Is there any way to accomplish this. Appreciate your assistance on this. Thanks!

Regards,

Manoj

You can actively monitor the session at Monitoring > Sessions. You can reset the IPsec tunnel here.
