Nice summary. Speaking about debug commands procedure is written in more SK articles. At least good one for start is the sk33327 - How to generate a valid VPN debug, IKE debug and FW Monitor

Good commands and lastly IKE Info Viewer is the best tool to troubleshoot VPN.

So looking at the information on the "IKEView Tool" in sk30994, it seems it can only display information captured in a debug. Is there a way to see in realtime the remaining key lifetimes on Phase1 and Phase2 SAs, or other details such as Phase2 SA local and remote identities? This could easily be done on ASA, but I can't seem to find it on Check Point gateways.
