The

Details
widget on the Remote Site Details
page
lists the number and health of each path that is monitored for each
application used at the remote site.Clicking on an application card shows you the total number of
paths, the number of active paths, and the number of backup paths
that are monitored for that application.
For both active and backup paths of an application, ADEM collects
the following information, which is different for each type of path:
- Calculates an experience score
- The type of path (Prisma Access path (standard VPN), Secure Fabric path, or Direct Access path)
- Its source circuit and destination termination pointsClick on a type of path (active or backup) to see the filtered data for that path type only in the widgets that follow.
You also see a card for each type of path for that application.
ADEM monitors three types of paths:
- Prisma Access PathPrisma AccessPath: You can see the source circuit name extracted from the remote site, the path type (standard VPN) and the destination IPSec termination node name on Prisma Access.
- Direct Access PathThe Direct Access Path shows which remote site (Miami) and circuit name (att_internet_mia123), has direct access to the applications. The circuit name is derived from the name configured for the circuit on the Prisma SD-WAN controller.
- Secure Fabric PathThe Secure Fabric path forms a tunnel to the Prisma SD-WAN in the data center. In addition to the path type, this widget shows you the remote site name and the data center where the tunnel is terminating. It also displays the source circuit name extracted from the remote site connected and the destination circuit name in the data center.
