Thanks, I think that will work.
I'll write 2 similar scripts - one to check if backup is on and restart the VPN and one to check if main is on and restart the VPN. The second one will be disabled in scheduler. When the first one executes it will disable itself and enable the second one and vice versa.

I tried the idle timeout setting, but the timeout timer resets everytime someone tries to push traffic through the vpn, so it's no use. And I don't want the vpn to disconnect when there is no need

Hi, I have the following situation. 2 lines - main and backup. 2 default gateways - backup with larger metrics. It works well, but I have an OpenVPN client which does not restart when changing from main to backup line. So I basically need script to watch if the backup is on then to restart the OpenV...

On the ssh service, check the available from field.
