pFsense / custom monitoring ip Gateway?

Networking & Firewalls

Hi,

Do you know a method to customize the ip used by the gateway monitoring system?

Because my provider doesn’t seem to like repetitive pings of the gateway and I have to check “Disable Gateway Monitoring Action” otherwise the connection is reset at each peak!
The ping of the gateway oscillates a lot while a ping to 8.8.8.8 is very stable. (FTTH fiber connection).
