Use Network Monitor to ping across IPSEC vpn

ScomageScomage Newbie ✭
in Mid Range Firewalls

We have two TZ 270s connected with a vpn. I can ping from the remote to a resource on the local network successfully. On the remote sw, I created an address object with the ip address of the local resource with LAN zone and host. My Network Monitor rule on the remote sw cannot successfully ping the local resource. Any advice is appreciated.

    You could try an explicit route ping probe, explore the options in there.

    I have run into the same issue. I can ping from the local Sonicwall to a device in the remote subnet if I use

    Device > Diagnostics > Ping

    But when I create a Network > Network monitor, the pings will fail. Looking at the Packet Monitor, it looks like the packet is leaving through the WAN interface instead of using the VPN tunnel.

    It looks like the Network Monitor is not respecting parts of the routing table or am I wrong?
