SA Monitor

This chapter teaches you how to manage your SAs by using the SA Monitor in SMT menu 27.2.

37.1 SA Monitor Overview

A Security Association (SA) is the group of security settings related to a specific VPN tunnel. This menu
(shown next) displays active VPN connections.

When there is outbound traffic but no inbound traffic, the SA times out

automatically after two minutes. A tunnel with no outbound or inbound traffic is

"idle" and does not timeout until the SA lifetime period expires. See the Web

Configurator User’s Guide on keep alive to have the Prestige renegotiate an IPSec

SA when the SA lifetime expires, even if there is no traffic.

37.2 Using SA Monitor

1. Use

the

Refresh function to display active VPN connections.

2. Use

the

Disconnect function to cut off active connections.

Type 2 in Menu 27 - VPN/IPSec Setup, and then press [ENTER] to go to Menu 27.2 - SA Monitor.
