Statistics collection

Input and output octets and packets per service queue are used for billing end customers who are on a metered service plan. Because multiple tunnels can be configured per interface, the statistics can include multiple tunnels. These can be viewed in the CLI and SNMP.

Reporting (syslog, traps) for authentication failures and other IPsec errors are supported, including errors during IKE processing for session setup and errors during encryption or decryption.

A session log indicates the sort of SA setup when there is a possible negotiation. This includes the setup time, teardown time, and negotiated parameters (such as encryption algorithm) as well as identifying the service a particular session is mapped to, and the user associated with the session.
