Preface
The VPN Concentrator provides an HTML-based graphic interface, called the VPN Concentrator
Manager, that allows you to configure, administer, and monitor your device easily. The VPN
Concentrator Manager has three sets of screens that correspond to these tasks: Configuration screens,
Administration screens, and Monitoring screens.
VPN 3000 Series Concentrator Reference Volume II: Administration and Monitoring is the second in the
two volume VPN 3000 Series Concentrator Reference. Together, both volumes document all the screens
of the VPN Concentrator Manager.
• VPN 3000 Series Concentrator Reference Volume I: Configuration explains how to start and use the
VPN Concentrator Manager. It details the Configuration screens and explains how to configure your
device beyond the minimal parameters you set during quick configuration.
• VPN 3000 Series Concentrator Reference Volume II: Administration and Monitoring provides
guidelines for administering and monitoring the VPN Concentrator. It explains and defines all
functions available in the Administration and Monitoring screens of the VPN Concentrator
Manager. Appendixes to this manual provide troubleshooting guidance and explain how to access
and use the alternate command-line interface.

Series Concentrator Reference Volume I: Configuration.
