Failure to Establish Gateway Tunnels

The Gateway tunnels failed to get established insight can be accessed from the Global, Site, and Gateways context. This insight provides information about gateway tunnels that are marked down in the network. It is categorized under availability since the clients connected to these gateways experience connectivity drops.

Gateway Tunnels Down insight is available for branch and VPNC gateways in the network.

Tunnels are marked down in the network based on the following scenarios:

  • If Classic Central receives telemetry from a branch gateway that a specific tunnel is down.
  • If Classic Central receives telemetry from the VPNC that a specific tunnel is down.
  • Lack of telemetry from both branch and VPNC gateway.

This insight displays the following information:

Insight Summary

The insight summary provides the following details:

  • Reason—Displays the possible causes for tunnel down in the network.
  • Minutes Down—Displays the exact number and percentage of tunnel down that occurred against each failure reason.

Time Series Graph

The time series graph displays the percentage and number of tunnels down in the network during the selected time period. You can hover your mouse over each bar graph to see the exact percentage of tunnels down.
