Field

Description

 

 

Connection Entry Name

The name of the connection entry for this VPN session.

 

 

Connection Time

The connection time for this VPN session.

 

 

Encryption

Encryption algorithm used for this VPN session. The VPN Client

 

supports:

 

56-bit DES (Data Encryption Standard)

 

168-bit Triple-DES

 

AES 128-bit and 256-bit

 

Note The VPN Client continues to support DES/MD5. However,

 

support for DES/SHA is no longer available, and Release

 

3.7 and later VPN Clients cannot connect to any central-site

 

device group that is configured for (or proposing)

 

DES/SHA. The VPN Client must either connect to a

 

different group or the system administrator for the

 

central-site device must change the configuration from

 

DES/SHA to DES/MD5 or another supported configuration.

 

The Cisco VPN Client Administrator Guide lists all

 

supported encryption configurations.

 

 

Authentication

Authentication algorithm used for this VPN session. The VPN

 

Client supports:

 

HMAC-MD 5 (Hashed Message Authentication Coding with

 

Message Digest 5 hash function)

 

HMAC-SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm hash function)

 

 

Transparent tunneling

Displays whether transparent tunneling is enabled; if enabled, lists

 

the protocol and port number.

 

 

Local LAN

Displays whether Local LAN access (split tunneling) is enabled.

Route Details

Local LAN routes are excluded from the secure VPN tunnel.

Secured routes are routes that go through the secured VPN tunnel.

To display route data during an active VPN session, open the Statistics window and click the Route Details tab (Figure 7-9).
