- VLAN ID: Identifier of the VLAN.
- Local IP Address: IP address assigned to the VPN user on the local network.
- Remote IP Address: IP address assigned to the VPN user on the remote network.
- Connection Time: Time that the VPN connection was established (HH:MM:SS).
- Connection Type: Type of VPN connection.

- Port: Name of the port (LAN, Internet, or Bridge).
- Tx Packets: Number of packets transmitted.
- Tx Dropped: Number of transmitted packets that were dropped.
- Tx Errors: Number of packets with transmission errors.
- Rx Packets: Number of packets received.
- Rx Dropped: Number of received packets that were dropped.
- Collisions: Indicates how many times two wireless clients tried to use the network simultaneously. A small number of collisions is normal. A large number of collisions indicates that not enough bandwidth exists to support the traffic on the network.
- Ethernet Link Speed (Mbps): Indicates the speed in Mbps of the Ethernet connection for the port.
- Ethernet Duplex: Indicates the duplex status of the Ethernet connection for the port.
VLANs Status list on the VLANs Status tab:
- VLAN ID: Identifier of the VLAN.
- Port: Name of port associated with the VLAN.
- Bytes Received (KB): Number of bytes received.
- Bytes Sent (KB): Number of bytes sent.
- IP Address/Subnet Mask: Subnet associated with the VLAN.
IPsec Status list on the IPsec Status tab:
- SPI ID: Security parameter index, which identifies an SA.
- Source: IP address of the MSM Controller.
- Destination: IP address of the peer.
- Transform: Indicates the type of security being used for this SA. It is composed of three values: protocol, encryption, and authentication. Protocol: Only ESP can be used. Encryption: 3DES or AES. Authentication: HMAC_MD5, HMAC_SHA1, or HMAC_SHA2. For example, ESP_3DES_HMAC_MD5.
- Direction: Indicates the direction of the SA: incoming or outgoing.
- Bytes: Number of bytes transferred using this SA.
- Packets: Number of packets transferred using this SA.
- Age: Indicates how long since the SA was established. When age reaches 3600 seconds, the SA will be renegotiated.
- Active: Indicates the total amount of time the SA has been used to send and receive traffic.
- Idle: Indicates the total amount of time the SA has been idle.
RADIUS Server Status list on the RADIUS Server Status tab:
