Stop OpenVPN Client if WAN Gateway is down.

[multimania]

Hello,

i have problems with my opnsense as OpenVPN Client.
If i lost the WAN Connection, the OpenVPN Client is not going up.

If i stop the OpenVPN client and start again, it works.

What can i do to stop die OpenVPN Client on opnsense if my upstream WAN Gateway is marked as DOWN. And if the gateway is UP again start the OpenVPN Client again.

Thanks for your help.

I suggest using monit to monitor the PID for the gateway

This is in a different context and for a different purpose, but it may help with ideas: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=18745.msg97953#msg97953
