Monitoring PFSense IPSec tunnels using zabbix

Monitoring IPsec tunnels on PFSense using zabbix

This project was forked from https://github.com/jpmenil/zabbix-templates. Thanks to @jpmenil by share

This template is used for monitoring IPSEC tunnels on PFSense using zabbix.

Dependencies

• Zabbix agent (you can install it from pfsense packages manager)
• sudo (you can install it from pfsense packages manager)
• Zabbix Server >= 3.2
• check_ipsec.sh
• check_ipsec_traffic.sh
• zabbix-ipsec.py
• zabbix_sudoers

How it works

The template queries zabbix-ipsec.py for tunnels ids (conXXXX). After that, the items prototipes are created consuming check_ipsec.sh script. The script check_ipsec_traffic is used to collect traffic about the tunnel. There are also a grafana dashboard if you want https://grafana.com/dashboards/8008 (grafana_ipsec_dashboard.json).

Installation

• You have to put check_ipsec.sh, check_ipsec_traffic.sh and zabbix-ipsec.py on pfsense filesystem. (/usr/local/bin/ in this example)
• Install sudo pakage at pfsense packages manager
• Copy file zabbix_sudoers under /usr/local/etc/sudoers.d
• Enabled Custom Configuration on Advanced Settins at System -> sudo
• Create the follow user parameters at zabbix-agent config page on pfsense (Service -> Zabbix-agent -> Advanced Options)

UserParameter=ipsec.discover,/usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/zabbix-ipsec.py
UserParameter=ipsec.tunnel[*],/usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/check_ipsec.sh $1
UserParameter=ipsec.traffic[*],/usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/check_ipsec_traffic.sh $1 $2

• Set execution permissions

chmod +x /usr/local/bin/zabbix-ipsec.py
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/check_ipsec.sh 
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/check_ipsec_traffic.sh 

• Import the template ipsec_template.xml on zabbix and attach to pfsense hosts
• Go get a beer

To do

• Create feature to check if there are communication between sites (ping, nc or something like that)
• Recfactoring check_ipsec_traffic and check_ipsec to optimize execution (use a kind of cache insted of run ipsec command and parser result a lot of times)
