Hi. What i do is, that i have another strongswan setup on (another) monitoring machine.
This one tries to connect to the vpn server periodically using a special "monitoring user / monitoring command”. After the connection succeeded i do a “curl” to an "ip address mirror” and compare it with the expected value (e.g. address of the vpn server) If not -> alarm. Best regards, Michael > On 14.
