About the External Probe Page

To access this page, select Secure Edge > Service Management > External Probe.

Use this page to configure probe settings to enable external probe for a site, which are used by CPE to monitor the tunnel health status.

To configure the external probe settings:

1. Enter the following configuration settings:

   • Destination address—Enter the destination IPv4 address or DNS server.

     By default, the destination IP address is 8.8.8.8 (Google Public DNS).

   • Source subnet—Enter the source IPv4 address subnet and mask.

     This feature supports all CPE devices with RPM-based ping capability, including the Junos OS and Mist/SSR devices. You can enable this feature for both IPsec and GRE tunnels.

2. Click Save.

   Probe settings are configured. You can now enable external probe while creating a site at Secure Edge > Service Management > Sites.
