Use the BOVPN Configuration Reports

To see a summary of the settings configured for a branch office VPN gateway, tunnel, or BOVPN virtual interface in a format that is easy to save or print, you can use the BOVPN Configuration Reports. These reports make it easier to compare VPN settings between VPN endpoints devices when you troubleshoot a branch office VPN. The reports are all available in HTML or plain text format.

BOVPN Configuration reports include:

  • BOVPN Gateway Configuration Report
  • BOVPN Tunnel Configuration Report
  • BOVPN Virtual Interface Configuration Report

These reports show information about the VPN configuration. They do not show real-time status of the VPN. For information about how to run the VPN Diagnostic report that shows real-time tunnel status, go to Use the VPN Diagnostic Report.
