    Hi, 

    You can try to use the API and build your own management pack, or using telegraph and custom script. We did it this way, we use a script to check the status of the VPN tunnel and counts the number of active sessions.

    Regards

    Hi Guillermo,

    you can use Spectrum Watches.

    https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/it-operations-management/spectrum/23-3/managing-network/watches.html

    Watches allows you to define OIDs to poll and apply an expression to validate an expected value. If the condition is not met, an alarm will be raised.

    Alternatively, you can open an Enhancement Request to incorporate this capability natively in the product.

    Another option is to use Performance Management.

    Regards
