Hi Pavel, awesome post. I chose hetzner instead of ArubaCloud.
I do have a suggestion for improvement: monitoring of the bridge.
Let me explain: after the setup is done I want to be notified when the service goes down/up. Email is just fine, but I'd like to know that the bridge is up all the time. Could you add it to your post?

You can monitor your bridge activity with relay search, as described in post-install notes. I've added the section on it to the blog post.

I've worked on an automated solution for bridge monitoring for some time now, and I didn't find a robust solution that I would like more than a simple bookmark.
