2.4.8 VPN Status
Click VPN in the HOME screen when the ZyWALL is set to router mode. This screen
displays read-only information about the active VPN connections. The Poll Interval(s) field is
configurable. A Security Association (SA) is the group of security settings related to a specific
VPN tunnel.
Figure 12 HOME > VPN Status
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
MAC Address The MAC (Media Access Control) or Ethernet address on a LAN (Local Area
Network) is unique to your computer (six pairs of hexadecimal notation).
A network interface card such as an Ethernet adapter has a hardwired address that is
assigned at the factory. This address follows an industry standard that ensures no
other adapter has a similar address.
Reserve Select the check box in the heading row to automatically select all check boxes or
select the check box(es) in each entry to have the ZyWALL always assign the
selected entry(ies)’s IP address(es) to the corresponding MAC address(es) (and host
name(s)). You can select up to 32 entries in this table. After you click Apply, the MAC
address and IP address also display in the Static DHCP screen (where you can edit
them) for the specified interface.
Refresh Click Refresh to reload the DHCP table.
