Checking policy status

Policy status can have the following values:

Active — you created a connection to a VPN access point

that is associated with the VPN policy. When you create a

connection, the VPN policy is activated.

Associated with a VPN access point — you associated the VPN

policy with one or several VPN access points. You can

select any of the VPN access points to activate the VPN

policy.

Not associated with a VPN access point — you must associate

the VPN policy with a VPN access point to activate the

VPN policy.

Note: The VPN policy details view is not

refreshed if the policy status changes while

the view is open.

Checking certificate status

Certificate status can have the following values:

OK — at least one valid certificate is available in the

device or you do not use certificates to authenticate to

VPN gateways.

Expired — lifetime of one or more certificates has ended.

If you cannot create a VPN connection, update the VPN

policy to enroll new certificates.

Missing — One or more of the required certificates cannot

be found on the device. If you cannot create a VPN

connection, try to update the VPN policy to enroll new

certificates.

Not yet valid — one or more certificates are for future use.

This value might also mean that the date and time on the

device are set in the past, time zones are not set correctly,

or the daylight-saving setting is turned on.
