Firewall Monitoring

Firewall monitoring is the process of keeping your network firewalls secure by analyzing key firewall monitoring parameters like traffic, bandwidth utilization, and sessions. Firewall monitoring is the process of closely tracking the health, availability, and performance of the firewalls in your network using a firewall monitoring tool.

You can also obtain deep performance monitoring insights for your virtual private networks (VPN) using Site24x7.

Obtain comprehensive performance analysis

From availability to health analytics and performance monitoring, Site24x7 holds responsibility for monitoring, thus, protecting the whole of your sensitive firewall device.

Track metrics like backplane utilization

Monitor critical performance metrics such as CPU, memory, and backplane utilization, active session count, oversize and undersize packets, and much more to warrant firewall security.

Measure in and out traffic utilization

Get to know the real-time network traffic of any SNMP device. Site24x7 provides you interface level bandwidth utilization based on in and out traffic along with graphs.

Capture real-time performance data

Gain deep insights on firewall performance with Site24x7 On-Premise Poller that connects to the SNMP MIB of the device, and collects exact figures from there.

Track the anomalies instantly

Identify and rectify problems with solid data about outages and SNMP traps. Root cause analysis reports will help you keep track of the anomalous behavior of firewall devices.

Receive precise downtime notifications

Up, down, or trouble—Act to your priority with timely notifications. Get email, SMS, voice, instant messenger, RSS, and push notifications about downtimes.

IPsec tunnel monitoring built into your firewall visibility

Site24x7 provides a clear and structured view of all VPN tunnels on your firewalls. For each discovered IPsec peer, you can inspect encryption settings, verify hashing algorithms, and analyze real-time bandwidth usage, directly alongside your firewall’s performance and security metrics.

You maintain stable, secure VPN operations and resolve connectivity issues faster with full context from the firewall itself.

Platform coverage

Supported for FortiGate, Cisco, and WatchGuard firewalls, with additional vendors being added.

Key capabilities

Peer visibility

Instantly see which VPN endpoints are active on the firewall.

Encryption and integrity checks

Validate tunnel security parameters without requiring a device login.

Per-tunnel traffic insights

Track precise throughput to detect saturation or performance drops.

Operational status

Identify tunnel up/down states and correlate issues with firewall events.

Faster troubleshooting

Receive instant alerts when a peer is down, allowing you to resolve issues more quickly.
