This monitor works under linux (kernel 2.4.0 upwards) with the freeswan implementation of ipsec. See http://www.freeswan.org for more information about it. The monitor checks if an ipsec tunnel to remote network is established. It does so via the "ipsec look" command. Simply create a hostgroup ipsec in your mon.cf and feed it with networks, for example: hostgroup ipsec 192.168.36.0/24 192.168.126.32/27 This will check if there's a tunnel to the networks 192.168.36.0/24 and 192.168.126.32/27 Notice: ipsec must be in $PATH otherwise nothing will work. # Copyright (C) 2001 Wiktor Wodecki # # This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify # it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by # the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or # (at your option) any later version. # # This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, # but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of # MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
