Check if IPSEC is working
I setup policies on a fileserver to use IPsec if requested, but still operate w/o securities if the client doenst request it. (ie, both secure and unsecure communication to the file server) I've setup an mmc for IPsec monitor, but have no idea how to read the statistics. How can i tell if ipsec is in effect?

all you've done is tell me what I already told you I had done, but I dont know how to read these statistics. Basically I want a way to know if yes IPsec is in effect or no it is not in effect. How can i tell that with these tools?
