Header Section
The header at the top of the page displays key identifying information:
- Edge Name: The display name of the edge, with an Edit Info button to update the name or description
- Serial Number: The unique hardware identifier
- Model: The hardware model
- Status Badge: Color-coded indicator showing online (green), offline (red), or degraded (yellow)
- VPP Mode Badge: Shows whether the edge runs DPDK (blue) or AF_PACKET (purple)
- Last Seen: Timestamp of the most recent heartbeat from the edge
Header Actions

Tabs
The detail page is organized into nine tabs:
Health Overview
A dashboard of the edge's current operational health:
- CPU utilization — Current and historical CPU usage
- Memory usage — RAM utilization and trends
- Disk usage — Storage capacity and usage
- Network throughput — WAN/LAN interface bandwidth graphs
- Uptime — System and VPP uptime
Configuration Summary
A read-only overview of the edge's current configuration state across all sections — interfaces, routes, NAT, WireGuard, and more. Use the Configure button in the header to make changes.
VPP Status
Technical details about the VPP data plane:
- VPP Version — Running software version
- API status — Binary API and CLI connectivity
- Feature availability — Which VPP plugins are loaded
- Interface list — All VPP interfaces with link state
ACL
View the access control list rules currently applied to the edge. Rules are shown with their priority, action (permit/deny), source/destination, protocol, and ports.
Routing Policies
View routing policies and BGP configuration active on the edge, including any policies inherited from peering groups.
Flow Export
IPFIX/flowprobe settings for this edge:
- Status — Whether flow export is enabled
- Collector — Target collector address and port
- Timers — Active and inactive flow timers
- Record layers — L2, L3, and L4 collection layers
SSH Access
Remote SSH access status and configuration:
- Tunnel status — Whether the reverse SSH tunnel is active
- Tunnel port — The allocated port on the bastion server
- Connection command — Ready-to-copy SSH command for connecting
Alerts
Recent alerts and threshold violations for this edge, including connectivity loss events, high resource utilization, and sync failures.
Diagnostics
Interactive diagnostic tools for troubleshooting:
- VPP Ping — Send ICMP pings from the edge's VPP data plane to test reachability
- Interface diagnostics — View detailed interface counters and error statistics
Config Sync Status
The configuration sync status indicates whether the edge is running the intended configuration:
| Status | Indicator | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Synced | Green | The edge has confirmed it is running the current configuration |
| Pending | Yellow | Configuration changes have been made but not yet pushed to the edge |
| Failed | Red | The edge was unable to apply the configuration |
| Unknown | Gray | No confirmation received yet (e.g., newly provisioned edge) |
Sync Button
The Sync button on the edge detail header allows you to manually trigger a configuration push.
- "Synced" (disabled): No pending changes; the button is grayed out
- "Sync Now" (active): Pending changes exist; click to push them to the edge
- "Syncing..." (in-progress): A sync operation is currently underway; the button shows a loading state
The Sync button only appears as active when there are pending configuration changes. If the button shows "Synced" and is disabled, the edge is already running the latest configuration. See Syncing Configuration for more details on the sync process.
