Use VPN Monitor to get an at-a-glance status of the up/down status of VPN tunnels as
well as other statistics relevant to your VPN.
NOTE: You must enable the VPN Monitor option on the tunnel when configuring the
tunnel for the device.
The VPN Monitor lists a summary of all the VPN tunnels that have been implemented in
your system. It includes visual indicators that depict whether an existing VPN tunnel is
Up, Down, or Not Monitored. The Summary also includes information describing the VPN
name, VPN type, source, destination, security parameter index., IP address, and protocol.
