IKE Tunnels Statistics workspace
The 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.
To display the IKE Tunnels Statistic workspace, right-click the IPSec Tunnels Navigator item for a specific TCP/IP
stack, select Workspaces, and select the IKE Tunnels Statistics link.
Summary information is displayed in the IKE Tunnels Statistics Summary table.
The IKE Tunnels Statistics workspace contains the following views:
- Protected Byte Rate: Shows the rate at which
data is flowing through all of the IKE tunnels on the stack. Use
this view to determine which tunnels are being used the most. The
graph is a bar chart where:
- Yellow represents the number of bytes per
minute flowing through outbound IKE tunnels.
- Blue represents the number of bytes per
minute flowing through inbound IKE tunnels.
- Total IKE Tunnel Activations: Provides a
snapshot of the cumulative number of successful and failed IKE tunnel
activations since the IKE daemon was started. The bars on the graph
differentiate between IKE tunnels that were initiated locally and
IKE tunnels that were initiated remotely. The graph is a bar chart
where:
- Yellow represents the number of Successful
Local tunnel activations.
- Pink represents the number of Failed Local
tunnel activations.
- Blue represents the number of Successful
Remote tunnel activations.
- Green represents the number of Failed Remote
tunnel activations.
- IKE Tunnel States: Provides a snapshot of
the state of the all the IKE tunnels known by the IKE daemon. The
graph is a bar chart where:
- Yellow represents the number of tunnels
that are Active.
- Blue represents the number of tunnels that
are In Progress (either pending or in negotiation).
- Pink represents the number of tunnels that
are Expired.
- IKE Key Message Statistics: Provides statistics
about key exchange messages that are used to activate IKE tunnels
between security endpoints. High number of key exchange messages could
indicate that a problem exists. The graph is a bar chart where:
- Yellow represents the number of key exchange
messages that were Retransmitted.
- Blue represents the number of key exchange
messages that were Replayed.
- Pink represents the number of key exchange
messages that were Invalid.
A high number of retransmitted or replayed messages over several
collection intervals may indicate a problem in the network between
the two security endpoints. Invalid messages may indicate an attack
or an incompatibility between the security endpoints.
- IKE Tunnels Statistics Summary table:
Provides performance and configuration data about all IKE tunnels
known by the IKE daemon for a TCP/IP stack.
IKE Tunnels Statistics Summary table
The IKE Tunnels Statistics Summary table provides performance and
configuration data about all IKE tunnels known by the IKE daemon for
a TCP/IP stack. For a complete list of the attributes available in
the IKE Tunnels Statistics Summary table, and a brief description
of each, see the IPSec Status Attributes help panel.
The following additional workspaces can be accessed by right-clicking
the Link icon in the IKE Tunnels Statistics
Summary table:
- IKE Tunnels workspace (default):
Displays availability and performance statistics for IKE tunnels known
to the IKE daemon for a specific stack.
- IKE Tunnels with Byte Rate < 1024 workspace:
Displays availability and performance statistics for IKE tunnels with
a byte rate of less than 1024 bytes known to the IKE daemon for a
specific stack.
