Cloud Config:Dual-tunnel VPN Gateway with established active and standby tunnels

Last Updated:Oct 14, 2025

Checks whether the dual-tunnel mode is supported for the VPN gateways and whether the active and standby tunnels are connected. If both conditions are met, the evaluation result is considered compliant.

Scenarios

An enterprise configures a dual-tunnel VPN Gateway to ensure that both the active and standby tunnels are successfully connected to the peer. This configuration allows automatic switching to the standby tunnel when the active tunnel fails, ensuring business continuity and high availability of data transmission. This configuration is considered "Compliant" with a default risk level of high.

Risk level

Default risk level: high.

You can change the risk level as needed.

Detection logic

Checks whether the dual-tunnel mode is supported for the VPN gateways and whether the active and standby tunnels are connected. If both conditions are met, the evaluation result is considered compliant.
