The fields are:

Full Datagram, Reduced Overhead, and Keep-Alive:

These fields show the number of

received, transmitted, and dropped packets of each kind since the tunnel was established.
A non-zero dropped count means that invalid packets are being received in the tunnel.

TX Rate (b/s):

This field shows the rate at which the 9992-ENC is transmitting in he

tunnel, in bits/second.

RX Rate (b/s):

This field shows the rate at which the 9992-ENC is receiving packets

from the tunnel, in bits/second.

Remote Endpoint:

This field shows the IP address and UDP port of the remote endpoint

to which the 9992-ENC is connected. If the tunnel is configured as a client, this should
match the server IP address and UDP port. If the tunnel is configured as a server, this
will report the client’s IP address and UDP port (which does not necessarily match the
port at which the server is listening).

Remote Name:

This field reports the Common Name (CN) of the remote device. If

encryption is not being used, this field will be blank. Note that, if this field is blank when
authentication is enabled, it means that the peer did not send a CN or sent a blank CN. If
you turn on authentication, connections with this peer will be rejected.

Remote MAC:

This field reports the remote MAC Address, if supplied in the

Keep-Alive message. This field will be blank if the remote side does not send RIST
Keep-Alive messages. While Cobalt devices will always send this information, it is legal
for third-party devices to not include it.

Current Cipher:

This field shows the canonical name of the cipher suite currently in

use. It will be blank if encryption is not enabled.

Network Statistics Remote Info Tab

RIST Main Profile defines an optional informational Keep-Alive message. If such message is
present, its contents will be displayed in this tab. While all Cobalt devices generate these
messages in RIST Main Profile mode, it is legal for peers not to send them. If these messages
are not present, all the fields in this tab will be blank.

The fields are:

Features:

The Keep-Alive message has a number of feature flags. This field shows

which flags are present in the message, as follows:
