Peers
What is this?
The Peers page shows every device that has connected (or is currently connected) to a VPN network. For each device, it shows:
- The VPN IP address assigned to it
- Technical details about the device (OS, version, architecture)
- Security posture information (antivirus status, pending updates) Administrators use this page to monitor what devices are on the VPN, verify device compliance, and remove devices if needed.
Where to find it
Management Console → Stack → VPN → Networks → [Network Name] → Peers

Deleting a peer
Clicking the delete icon removes the peer record. The next time that device tries to connect, it must re-authenticate and will be registered as a new peer.
When to delete a peer:
- An employee's device was lost or stolen
- A device is no longer in use
- You want to force a device to re-register with fresh security posture data
- Troubleshooting a connection issue
⚠️ Deleting a peer does not block the user from reconnecting. To prevent a user from connecting, disable their account in VPN Users.
Relationship with Security Policy
The data shown on this page is exactly what the Security Policy evaluates. If you want to understand why a device was blocked, compare its peer data against the active Security Policy settings.
For example, if Security Policy requires PENDING_UPDATES = 0 but a peer shows PENDING_UPDATES: 3, that device will be blocked until it installs its updates.
