Is there any way to have a Fortinet box send an email when a VPN connection is successfully created?  I can only find email setting for VPN connection failures.

    Hello Bret,

     

    You can create an automation stitch for FortiOS event logs to send an email when a VPN connection is successfully established.

     

    You can refer to the below article:

     

    https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Automation-stitch-for-FortiGate-events/ta-p/194017?externalID=FD46689

     

    As mentioned in the article, while selecting Event, select the appropriate event. For an example, if you want an email to be sent when SSLVPN connection is established, then select "SSL VPN tunnel up" event. 

     

    Similarly, you can use IPsec VPN events in the events and then specify your email information.

     

    Hopefully, this helps.
