In the VPN Dashboard, I don't see any information like traffic statistics. Why?
What's the point of the enhanced kill switch if each of the VPN/non-VPN tunnels has the kill switch enabled? Should it be enabled or disabled?
Hi,
When a VPN tunnel is connected normally, the VPN Dashboard should display connection information such as Traffic Statistics, Server Address, and Virtual IP.
Could you please share a screenshot of your current VPN Dashboard showing the tunnel status?
Regarding the Kill Switch, the Tunnel Kill Switch and Enhanced Kill Switch control different traffic.
Client A
│
├── matches VPN Tunnel 1
│ │
│ └── VPN fails
│ ├── Tunnel Kill Switch ON → Blocked
│ └── Tunnel Kill Switch OFF → All Other Traffic
│
Client B
│
└── does not match any VPN tunnel
│
└── All Other Traffic
├── Allow Non-VPN Traffic → WAN
└── Enhanced Kill Switch → Blocked
The Tunnel Kill Switch protects traffic that has already matched a specific VPN tunnel if that VPN connection fails.
The Enhanced Kill Switch applies to traffic that does not match any VPN tunnel and prevents it from accessing the Internet directly through the WAN.

Did you get my two PMs? Eager to get moving with improving my network!
BTW, how did you create that topology? I want to use that tool too!
Hi,
The tunnel shown in your screenshot is configured as “Not use VPN” for those 4 devices, so it is a Non-VPN tunnel rather than an active VPN connection.
Since the traffic is routed directly without using a VPN server, there is no VPN Virtual IP, Server Address, or VPN Traffic Statistics to display, so the - values here are expected.
For the topology diagram, you can simply describe the topology you want to an AI, ask it to draw it using text/ASCII symbols, and then copy the result directly into the forum reply box.
Or for more detailed diagrams, you can also use draw.io
