Status of a SA

[mbhat]

When the status of the sa is checked it shows the following staus, could some one tell me the significance of the value shown for the conn-id `1`.Does this value go up as the number of SA`s increase ?

eg: If i have 3 SA`s namely A-B,A-C and A-D will the conn-id for A-D be 3?

A-------=================================------>B

|------=================================------->C

|-----=================================-------->D

Each SA has unique connection ID

Hi there,

Thanks for the quick response,

Could youplease let me know if this connection Id is alloted sequentially,

or is it that it allots any random number ?

not sure, but i think it can't be random, has to be sequential. But if an SA is deleted, the conn-id is not re-used. If you want to be 100% sure, pls raise a TAC case to confirm this.
