Status column
The status of the connection, which is indicated by the following icons:
Interface
The router interface that is connected to the remote peers in this VPN connection.
An interface can be associated with only one IPSec policy. The same interface will
appear on multiple lines if there is more than one crypto map defined for the IPSec
policy used in this connection.
Description
A short description of this connection.
IPSec Policy
The name of the IPSec policy used in this VPN connection. The IPS ec policy
specifies how data is encrypted, which data will be encrypted, and where data will
be sent. For more information, click More about VPN Connections and IPSec
Policies.
Sequence Number
The sequence number for this connection. Becau se an IPSec policy may be used
in more than one connection, the combination of the sequence number and IPSec
policy name uniquely identifies this VPN connection. The sequence number does
not prioritize the VPN connection; the router will attempt to establish all
configured VPN connections regardless of sequence number.
Peers
The IP addresses or host names of the devices at the other end of the VPN
connection. When a connection contains multiple peers, their IP addresses or ho st
names are separated by commas. Multiple peers might be configured to provide
alternative routing paths for the VPN connection.
