Network Connector status log

Prev Next

This document describes the Network Connector Status log, a periodic connection status report displayed in the agent logs every 5 seconds. The report shows the active connection mode and health of each channel between the agent and the Segura® vaults.

How to access

The Status log is written directly to the Network Connector agent's standard log output. Access it through your container logging setup (e.g., docker compose logs -f), or via your centralized log management solution if one is configured.

For the event log in the Segura® interface, see Logs.

Network Connector status table

The status log displays a table labeled Network Connector Status that refreshes every 5 seconds.

Column Description
REMOTE IP address and port of the Segura® vault this channel is connected to.
MODE Cryptographic mode in use for this channel. Displays QUANTUM when PQC is active, or STANDARD when classical encryption is in use.
STEP Current state of the connection process. Values include WAITING_CERTS (negotiating certificates) and CONNECTED (channel established).
BOOTSTRAP Bootstrap status for PQC connections. Displays UP while being established and DONE once complete. Displays for STANDARD mode connections.
HEALTHZ Health check result. Displays PENDING during negotiation and UP (Xms) or UP (Xs) when the channel is healthy, where the value is the measured round-trip latency.
LAST ERROR Last error recorded for this channel. Empty when the connection is healthy.

Connection states

The table below shows the expected column values at each stage of a connection, for both modes.

Mode State STEP BOOTSTRAP HEALTHZ
QUANTUM Connecting WAITING_CERTS UP PENDING
QUANTUM Established CONNECTED DONE UP (Xms)
STANDARD Established CONNECTED UP (Xs)
Info

A MODE value of QUANTUM confirms that Post-Quantum Cryptography is active for that channel. If MODE shows a different value after enabling PQC, see How to enable Post-Quantum Cryptography in Network Connector for troubleshooting guidance.
