    If you do not see any data in the the L2L VPN VPN screen, consider that:

    • An L2L VPN was never created.

       

    • You do not have permission to view L2L VPN configurations.

      • You must have

        the 

        the Read Network

        L2L and 

        L2L and Write Network L2L

        To learn how to update you permissions,

        see 

        see Roles and Permissions.

         

    If you cannot save a new tunnel, consider that you have reached your limit of tunnels. When you are near your limit of tunnels, a warning message will appear. In this case,  Armor Armor recommends that you review existing tunnels to possibly consolidate or delete.
