Hi!

Make sure to use IP SLA to verify the working of the remote site.

If you're using BGP make sure multipath is enabled

 

I would recommend changing the aggregate IPsec to SD-WAN overlay make use of "Maximize bandwith"

For SD-WAN?

Please follow this guide:

 

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.0.0/sd-wan-sd-branch-deployment-guide/497384/defining-sd-wan-zones-for-the-overlay

Chapters:
