Manage and report on an Edge Services VPN-Plus device using NSX Edge and client OS CLI commands

 
Once you have an SSH session into the NSX Edge that SSL VPN PLus configured there are a few different commands you can run. In order to see what ssl-vpn plus service information you can view, type show service sslvpn-plus then hit enter. The output is displayed below.
 

vShield-edge-1-0> show service sslvpn-plus
  
  sessions  Show SSL VPN-Plus active sessions.
