I typically connect to multiple XG firewalls using a L2TP connection. Issue is when I disconnect I get an email alert that the session was terminated (I know, I terminated the connection). As an MSP, I get alerts for a lot of things, and this seems entirely unnecessary. The thing is, in the XG's...System Services...Notification List section there is a sub-section for controlling notifications on various VPN activities:
There is no option for controlling notifications for L2TP - IPSec connections, and apparently the options for SSL VPN are not covering these. Seems that there needs to be additional options for L2TP and IPSec connections. I have spoken with support in the past and it became a dead end. Can't remember if Sophos has a place for feature requests where I can add it an wait years for it never to be implemented.
Getting these alerts is unnecessary and annoying, and just adds to the noise.

Update:
I did find this article that provides info that Sophos has re-vamped there Ideas submission process: https://partnernews.sophos.com/en-us/2022/06/resources/retirement-of-sophos-ideas-for-feature-requests/
Doesn't give much info on how to submit these in the Community, but I used the Feedback option directly in the XG to submit my request.
Probably something you'd want to have moved to the XG forums. This one is for UTM.

Amodin,
Thanks for the heads-up. I thought I was posting in the correct area. I did not see a way to move it the the XG forum so I have re-posted here: https://community.sophos.com/sophos-xg-firewall/f/discussions/136489/xg-l2tp-vpn-disconnection-notification
Please everyone ignore this posting here and navigate to the URL above.
Maybe a forum moderator will remove this thread.
