Description: Encrypted packets
What is cpvEncPackets?
The desc explicitly states this is the count of encrypted packets, the cumulative total of outbound packets this gateway has encrypted for VPN traffic. This is the top-line counter to confirm a VPN tunnel is actually carrying traffic rather than just showing as 'up' in the tunnel status; a tunnel with zero growth here despite being reported active means no outbound traffic is actually being routed into it. e.g. cpvEncPackets growing by roughly 50,000 packets per minute during business hours across all active VPN tunnels on this gateway.
