Is there a way to monitor anchor mobility tunnels? We have 3 corporate locations currently separated by a FW. The anchor mobility tunnels periodically go down and we only hear about it when a user indicates they cannot get on the wireless network. Management has asked if there is a way to monitor the tunnel via an external monitoring system like telenium so that we can be proactive in detecting that tunnel being down. I know EoIP tunnels are logical so I'm unsure of a technical way to monitor that interface for an up/down state.
I've checked multiple entries here on the support page all have somewhat pointed to the firewall as generally the culprit when anchor tunnels are going up and down.

You might monitor syslog messages related to mobility peer state, the WLC sends periodic keepalive messages across the mobility tunnel to monitor state:
MM-4-INET_MEMBER_DOWN
MM-6-INET_MEMBER_UP

Thanks,
Can these entities be exported to an outside system? Via some type of SNMP trap?
