Primary and Secondary IPsec VPN Tunnels

@Hannah-C There are multiple instances on this article where it says a feature or setting will be available "once version 19 hits GA":

Health check status is currently logged in the event log. An event type category is not yet available for health check logs, a category will be available before 19.x goes GA.

Tunnel monitoring probes are sourced from 192.0.2.3/32 by default for both primary and secondary tunnels. The Probe IP cannot be configured via Dashboard at this time. The ability to customize your probe IP via Dashboard will be available when the 19.x firmware becomes GA.

When does Meraki consider v19 GA, I would have thought it being in the Stable release candidate channel as GA, because it is no longer beta? Unless the wording should be changed to read "When 19.x firmware is promoted to the Stable channel"..

Hi @jimmyt234,

GA (General Availability) means stable, not stable release candidate.

HTH.
