VPN Tunnels (Orchestrator Details)

On SD-WAN Orchestrator views, this widget displays VPN tunnels and their metrics for all edges paired with the orchestrator.

This widget is supported for Aruba, Meraki, Prisma, VeloCloud, and Viptela devices.

For Prisma devices, tunnel statistics are not polled.

To see VPN tunnel details for VeloCloud orchestrators, you need to have polling for VPN tunnels enabled. When you install 2023.1, the option is enabled by default. When you upgrade to 2023.1 from an earlier version, enable the option manually.

  1. Click Settings > All Settings, and then click Polling Settings.
  2. Scroll down to VeloCloud settings, enable the Poll VPN Tunnels box, and submit the changes.

Tunnel names

Tunnel names depend on the device vendor. They are built as follows:

  • Aruba: {Source Interface Name} → {Peer System IP / Device ID}:{Peer Interface IP}
  • Meraki: {Source Interface Name} → {Peer Network Name}:{Peer Interface Name}
  • Prisma: {Source Interface Name} → {Peer SysName}:{Peer Interface Name}
