IPsec Status

The status of all IPsec tunnels may be viewed by browsing to Status > IPsec. This page is divided into four tabs.

Overview Tab

This tab lists all enabled IPsec tunnels, the local and remote IP addresses, local and remote networks, tunnel description, and status.

A green icon indicates that the tunnel is up (has SAD and SPD entries, signifying a complete phase 1 and 2 connection).

A yellow icon indicates that the tunnel is not fully up and active.

SAD Tab

Shows the contents of the IPsec Security Association Database. There should be one for each “direction” between public peer addresses of an active IPsec tunnel.

SPD Tab

Shows the contents of the IPsec Security Policy Database. There should be one for each direction between private networks of an active IPsec tunnel.

Logs Tab

A shortcut to the IPsec Logs normally found at Status > System Logs, IPsec tab.
