Monitor AWS VPC Tunnels using AWS Transit Gateway

Amazon Web Services (AWS) Transit Gateway acts as a cloud router. It connects enterprise virtual private clouds (VPCs) to AWS VPCs through a central hub, which allows for simplified peering relationships.

Security Cloud Control allows you to monitor the connection status of your onboarded AWS VPCs using AWS Transit Gateway.

Procedure

Step 1

Choose Secure Connections > Network Connections > Site to Site VPN.

The VPN Tunnels page displays the connection status for all network tunnels managed by your Security Cloud Control tenant. The connection status for the VPN tunnel can be active or idle.

Step 2

Select a VPC, and then under Actions, click Check Connectivity. This triggers a real-time connectivity check against the tunnel and identifies whether the tunnel is currently active or idle. If you do not click the on-demand connectivity check link, a check across all tunnels on all onboarded devices occurs every ten minutes.

Note	Security Cloud Control prompts a notification if the connection of a VPN tunnel goes down. No notification appears when the link comes back up.
