Control Center components
• IPSec
• DVCP
• WatchGuard VPN
The first line of the tunnel entry shows the name that was assigned when the tunnel
was created, along with the tunnel type (IPSec, DVCP, or WatchGuard). If the tunnel
is an IPSec or DVCP tunnel, it also shows the IP address of the destination IPSec
device (such as another Firebox, SOHO, or SOHO|tc). If the tunnel is DVCP, the IP
address refers to the entire remote network address rather than that of the Firebox or
equivalent IPSec device.
The next two lines display the amount of data sent and received on that tunnel in
both bytes and packets.
If the tunnel is IPSec or DVCP, the lines below the packet quantities show when the
key expires and the tunnel is renegotiated. Expiration can be expressed in bytes
passed or time deadline. DVCP tunnels that have been configured for both traffic and
time deadline expiration thresholds display both; this type of tunnel expires when
either event occurs first (time runs out or bytes are passed). These lines below the
packet quantities also show the authentication and encryption levels set for that
tunnel.
If the tunnel is using WatchGuard VPN, the tunnel displays the packet statistics only.
Remote VPN tunnels
Following the branch office VPN tunnels is an entry for remote VPN tunnels. Remote
VPN tunnels can either be Mobile User VPN (with IPSec) or Remote User PPTP.
If the tunnel is Mobile User VPN, the branch displays the same statistics as for the
DVCP or IPSec Branch Office VPN as described previously. The tunnel shows the
tunnel name, followed by the destination IP address, followed by the tunnel type.
Below are the packet statistics, followed by the key expiration, authentication, and
encryption specifications.
If the remote VPN tunnel is PPTP, then the display shows only the quantity of sent
and received packets. Byte count and total byte count are not applicable to PPTP
tunnel types.
Expanding and collapsing the display
To expand a branch of the display, click the plus sign (+) next to the entry, or double-
click the name of the entry. To collapse a branch, click the minus sign (—) next to the
entry. A lack of either a plus or minus sign indicates that there is no further
information about the entry.
Red exclamation point
A red exclamation point appearing next to any item indicates that something within
its branch is not functioning properly. For example, a red exclamation point next to
the Firebox entry indicates that a Firebox is not communicating with either the
LiveSecurity Event Processor or Management Station. A red exclamation point next
to a tunnel listing indicates a tunnel is down.
