IPSec Tunnel Monitoring

Oracle SD-WAN Edge 5.0 expanded on the IPsec Tunnel functionality introduced in Edge 4.4 by allowing third-party devices to terminate IPsec VPN Tunnels on the LAN or WAN side of Appliances. You can monitor those IPsec Tunnels using Aware 2.0 from the IPsec Tunnels tab of the Monitor, and then Reports screen. To refine the displayed report results, click on the Show/Hide Columns icon (INSERT ALT TEXT) and click the checkbox next to the attributes you prefer to display in the report.

The following data is displayed for each LAN GRE Tunnel:

  • Name
  • Site
  • Service Type (e.g., Intranet, LAN, or Conduit)
  • IPsec Tunnel Worst State
  • MTU
  • TX Bandwidth (i.e., Bandwidth Transmitted)
  • TX Packets (i.e., Packets Transmitted)
  • RX Bandwidth (i.e., Bandwidth Received)
  • RX Packets (i.e., Packets Received)
  • Data Dropped
  • Packets Dropped
