As of PRTG version 12, there are three sensor types available out of the box for monitoring connections, traffic, and users of a Cisco ASA VPN via SNMP. Please see the PRTG Manual for details.

As far as I know, you must import custom snmp sensor with the MIB OID to import the VPN tunnels. But if your ASA goes down, reboot. The SNMP MIB OID will give another index.

Wildcards cannot be used in PRTG, sorry.

Reading the SNMP MIB CISCO-IPSEC-FLOW-MONITOR-MIB, I notice there is a provision that would allow PRTG to associate the index with with remote and local IP addresses pair.
