| title: Bidirectional tunnel health checks are compatible with all Magic on-ramps | ||
| description: Bidirectional tunnel health check return packets are accepted by any Magic on-ramp | ||
| date: 2025-09-05 | ||

|
||
| All bidirectional tunnel health check return packets are accepted by any Magic on-ramp. | ||
|
|
||
| Previously, when a Magic tunnel had a bidirectional health check configured, the bidirectional health check would pass when the return packets came back to Cloudflare over the same tunnel that was traversed by the forward packets. | ||
|
|
||
| There are SD-WAN devices, like VeloCloud, that do not offer controls to steer traffic over one tunnel vs another in a high availability tunnel configuration. | ||
|
|
||
| Now, when a Magic tunnel has a bidirectional health check configured, the bidirectional health check will pass when the return packet traverses over any tunnel in a high availability configuration. | ||

| date: 2025-09-08 | ||

|
|
||
| Now, Magic WAN customers can configure a custom IKE ID for their IPsec tunnels. Customers that are using Magic WAN and a VeloCloud SD-WAN device together can utilize this new feature to create a high availability configuration. | ||
|
|
||
| This feature is available via API only. Customers can read the Magic WAN documentation to learn more about the [Custom IKE ID feature and the API call to configure it](/magic-wan/configuration/common-settings/custom-ike-id-ipsec/). |

|
||
| Magic WAN customers can configure a custom IKE ID for their IPsec tunnels. Customers that are using Magic WAN and a VeloCloud SD-WAN device together should utilize this option to create a high availability configuration. | ||
|
|
||
| :::note | ||
| This feature is only available via API. There are no configuration options for a custom IKE ID for an IPsec tunnel in the Cloudflare dashboard. | ||
| ::: | ||
|
|
||
| VeloCloud has a high availability mechanism that allows customers to specify one set of IKE parameters (e.g. IKE ID) and multiple remote IPs. Customers create an IKE ID, and then assign the same custom IKE ID to their "primary" IPsec tunnel and their "backup" IPsec tunnel. FQDN is the only supported type for custom IKE IDs. | ||

| Magic WAN customers can set a custom IKE ID for an IPsec tunnel using the following API call. Customers will need to fill in the appropriate values for <account_id>, <tunnel_id>, and the FQDN wildcard before running the API call. | ||
