Viewing attributes of active connections

 

Complete this task to check the status and other attributes of your active connections. To view the current attributes of an active or on-demand connection, follow these steps:

  1. IniSeries™ Navigator, expand your system > Network > IP Policies > Virtual Private Networking > Secure Connections

  2. Click All Connections to display a list of connections in the right pane.

  3. Right-click the active or on-demand connection that you want to view and select Properties.

  4. Go to the Current Attributes page to view the attributes of the connection.

You can also view the attributes of all connections from the iSeries Navigator window. By default, the only attributes that display are Status, Description, and Connection Type. You can change what data displays by following these steps:

  1. In iSeries Navigator, expand your system > Network > IP Policies > Virtual Private Networking > Secure Connections

  2. Click All Connections to display a list of connections in the right pane.

  3. From the Objects menu, select Columns. This opens a dialog box which allows you to select which attributes you want to display in the iSeries Navigator window.

Be aware that when you change the columns to view, the changes are not specific to a particular user or PC, but rather, are system-wide.
