I have two gateways set up as a failover group with one set as Tier1 and one set as Tier2.

I have 2 unique DNS servers setup for each gateway under System->Settings->General.

I'm using the Legacy tunnel settings for point to point VPN.  I'd like to know how I need to configure my tunnels to automatically switch when the gateway switches.

I know this is almost a month past, but gateways are your next hop router.  Basically you tell the firewall "This IP address knows how to get to the internet, so send all traffic here."  That's a default gateway.  Now let's say you have a subnet 10.42.42.0 that you need to access and your local  subnet is 10.42.43.0.  You would need a router that has one interface on each subnet.  (Those could be physical interfaces like lan or DSL connections or they could be a virtual interface like a VPN connection).  That router would be your "gateway" for the 10.42.42.0 subnet.
