Dynamic IP Tunnels workspace

The Dynamic IP tunnels workspace displays availability and performance statistics for dynamic IP tunnels known to the IKE daemon and the TCP/IP stack. Because of the large number of possible dynamic tunnels, this workspace is sorted by Byte Rate to quickly identify the relevant ones.

Summary information is displayed in the Dynamic IP Tunnels with Byte Rate = 0 Summary table and the Dynamic IP Tunnels Summary table.

One of the ways to display the Dynamic IP Tunnels workspace is to right-click the IPSec Tunnels Navigator item for a specific TCP/IP stack, select Workspaces and select the Dynamic IP Tunnels link.

The Dynamic IP Tunnels workspace contains the following views:

  • Tunnel States: Shows the current number of dynamic IP tunnels in different states for the given TCP/IP stack. The query for this view uses the IPSec Status attribute group instead of the Dynamic IP Tunnels attribute group. The graph is a bar chart where:
    • Yellow represents the number of Active tunnels.
    • Blue represents the number of Active Shadow (SWSA) tunnels.
    • Pink represents the number of Pending or Incomplete tunnels.
    • Green represents the number of Expired tunnels.
  • Dynamic IP Tunnels with Byte Rate = 0 Summary table:: Provides performance and configuration information for dynamic IP tunnels that are active and had a byte rate of 0 in the most recent interval. A byte rate of 0 could be indicative of a problem with the tunnel. Each row in the table represents a single dynamic IP tunnel. If this workspace is filtered by an incoming link, this table will be filtered as well.
  • Dynamic IP Tunnels Summary Table: Provides performance and configuration data about dynamic IP tunnels in the most recent interval. Each row in the table represents a single dynamic IP tunnel. The default sort is descending by Byte Rate. If this workspace is filtered by an incoming link, this table will be filtered as well.
