Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics Workspace
The Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics workspace displays cumulative availability
and performance statistics for the dynamic IP tunnels known to a TCP/IP stack.
Summary information is displayed in the Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics summary table.
The Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics workspace can be displayed by clicking
the IPSec Tunnels Navigator item of each monitored TCP/IP
stack. Though the Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics workspace is the default workspace,
the following workspaces can also be displayed by right-clicking the IPSec Tunnels leaf in the navigation tree:
- Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics (default): Displays
cumulative availability and performance statistics for the dynamic IP tunnels
known to a TCP/IP stack.
- 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 has a predefined default filter when initially opened.
The table view displays only those tunnels with a byte rate >= 2048
- Manual IP Tunnels Workspace: Displays
availability and performance statistics for manual IP tunnels known to a specific
TCP/IP stack.
- IKE Tunnels Statistics Workspace: Displays
cumulative availability and performance statistics for all of the IKE tunnels
known by the IKE daemon for a TCP/IP stack.
- IKE Tunnels Workspace: Displays
availability and performance statistics for the IKE tunnels known to a specific
TCP/IP stack.
- Dynamic IP Tunnels with Byte Rate < 2048 Workspace: Displays
availability and performance statistics for dynamic IP tunnels with a byte
rate of less than 2048 bytes known to the IKE daemon and the TCP/IP stack.
- IKE Tunnels with Byte Rate < 1024 Workspace: Displays
availability and performance statistics for the IKE tunnels with a byte rate
less than 1024 known to a specific TCP/IP stack.
The Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics Workspace contains the following views:
- Protected Byte Rate: Shows the rate at which data
is flowing through all of the dynamic IPSec tunnels on the stack. This view
can be used to see which tunnels are being used the most. The graph is a bar
chart where:
- Yellow represents the inbound byte rate expressed as number of bytes per
minute.
- Blue represents the outbound byte rate expressed as number of bytes per
minute.
- Total Dynamic Tunnel Activations: Shows the cumulative
number of successful and failed dynamic tunnel activations since the stack
was started. The graph is a bar chart where:
- Yellow represents the number of dynamic tunnels that were successfully
activated
- Blue represents the number of dynamic tunnels that failed to be activated.
- Dynamic Tunnel States: Shows the dynamic IP tunnels
known by the TCP/IP stack grouped by state. The graph is a bar chart where:
- Yellow represents the number of Active Shadow (SWSA) tunnels.
- Blue represents the number of Active tunnels.
- Pink represents the number of In Progress (either pending or in negotiation)
tunnels.
- Green represents the number of Expired tunnels.
- QUICKMODE Message Statistics: Provides cumulative
statistics about QUICKMODE messages used to negotiate dynamic IPSec tunnels
since the IKE daemon was started. High numbers of retransmits and replays
may indicate a network problem between the security endpoints (IKEs). Non-zero
values for invalid messages may indicate a possible attack. The graph is
a bar chart where:
- Yellow represents the number Invalid QUICKMODE messages.
- Blue represents the number Replayed QUICKMODE messages.
- Pink represents the number of Retransmitted QUICKMODE messages.
- Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics summary table: Provides cumulative
performance and availability data aggregated across all the dynamic IP tunnels
known to the TCP/IP stack and the IKE daemon since they TCP/IP stack was started.

The Dynamic IP Tunnels Statistics summary table provides cumulative performance
and availability data aggregated across all the dynamic IP tunnels known to
the TCP/IP stack and the IKE daemon since they were started.
For a complete list of the attributes available in the Dynamic IP Tunnels
Statistics summary table, and a brief description of each, see the IPSec Status Attributes help
panel.

tunnels, this workspace has a predefined default filter when initially opened.
The table view displays only those tunnels with a byte rate >= 2048
- Dynamic IP Tunnels with Byte Rate < 2048 Workspace: Displays
availability and performance statistics for dynamic IP tunnels with a byte
rate of more than or equal to 2048 bytes known to the IKE daemon and the TCP/IP
stack.
- Manual IP Tunnels Workspace: Displays
availability and performance statistics for manual IP tunnels known to a specific
TCP/IP stack.
