Add Network Tunnel Identity

A network tunnel identity enables you to manage and monitor traffic sent from an IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) IKEv2 (Internet Key Exchange, version 2) tunnel in your environment to Umbrella. Before Umbrella can begin to receive traffic from a network tunnel, you must add the tunnel to Umbrella as a network tunnel identity. Then, after you create the tunnel identity, configure and deploy the IPsec tunnel in a compatible network device.

Once Umbrella receives and logs traffic from the network tunnel, the tunnel is considered active. When you apply the network tunnel identity to an Umbrella Web or firewall policy rule, Umbrella can observe the state of the tunnel and report on traffic sent from the tunnel. View the events for the tunnel in the Umbrella Activity Search report.
