How to Check VPN Connections
You can test connectivity and view VPN status information on the FWG114P v2.
1. To test connectivity between the Gateway A FWG114P v2 LAN and the Gateway B LAN,
follow these steps:
a. Using our example, from a PC attached to the FWG114P v2 on LAN A, on a Windows PC
click the Start button on the taskbar and then click Run.
b. Enter ping -t 172.23.9.1, and then click OK.
c. This will cause a continuous ping to be sent to the LAN interface of Gateway B. After
between several seconds and two minutes, the ping response should change from “timed
out” to “reply.”
d. At this point the connection is established.
2. To test connectivity between the FWG114P v2 Gateway A and Gateway B WAN ports, follow
these steps:
a. Using our example, log in to the FWG114P v2 on LAN A, go to the main menu
Maintenance section and click the Diagnostics link.
b. To test connectivity to the WAN port of Gateway B, enter 22.23.24.25, and then click
Ping.
c. This will cause a ping to be sent to the WAN interface of Gateway B. After between
several seconds and two minutes, the ping response should change from “timed out” to
“reply.” You may have to run this test several times before you get the “reply” message
back from the target FWG114P v2.
d. At this point the connection is established.
Note: If you want to ping the FWG114P v2 as a test of network connectivity, be sure the
FWG114P v2 is configured to respond to a ping on the Internet WAN port by checking the
checkbox seen in “Rules menu” on page 6-5. However, to preserve a high degree of security,
you should turn off this feature when you are finished with testing.
3. To view the FWG114P v2 event log and status of Security Associations, follow these steps:
a. Go to the FWG114P v2 main menu VPN section and click the VPN Status link.
b. The log screen will display a history of the VPN connections, and the IPSec SA and IKE
SA tables will report the status and data transmission statistics of the VPN tunnels for each
policy.
