Network Status

   

The 'Network Status' screen shows real-time logs about connected network interfaces, network interface controllers (NICs), routing table entries and address resolution protocol (ARP).




Please use the following links to find out more about each area:

  • Interfaces
  • NIC Status
  • Routing Table Entries
  • ARP Entries 

Administrator can navigate to the required pane by clicking the shortcut links at the top of the screen.



Interfaces

 

The 'Interfaces' pane displays a list of all network interfaces connected to the virtual appliance along with their associated MAC address, IP address, and additional communication parameters. Example connected interfaces can include Ethernet interfaces, bridges or virtual devices. The interfaces that are active are indicated by colors, corresponding to the network zones that they serve:

  • Red – External network zone like WAN connected to internet
  • Yellow– DMZ zone
  • Green – Internal network like Local Area Network (LAN)
  • Blue – Wi-Fi zone



NIC Status

 

The 'NIC status' pane displays Network Interface Controllers (NICs) connected to the virtual appliance along with their current configuration and capabilities.




Routing Table Entries


The Routing Table Entries pane displays a list of routes configured for the network interfaces. Each line shows the traffic route within the corresponding network zones for the interface shown in the last column.
