Cisco ASA 5505 VPN Help

This is my first Cisco product that I've tried using the new (ASDM) GUI interface to set up. I have to say that I'm surprised at how difficult the GUI interface is for configuration compared to other products. But maybe I just need to learn my way around it more.

Can someone help me with the VPN and GUI?

I configured VPN via the GUI, but I do not see any way to check the status of the VPN or even a place to "connect" and/or "disconnect" (bring up/down). I'm trying build a tunnel to a LinkSys WRV54G. Does the GUI provide this level of support or do I need to go back to the command line? How do I know if the Cisco is trying to connect?

Are there any good books or docs on how to sue the new GUI (ASDM)?

Thanks:)

go to: monitoring (tab on top of the gui) -> vpn

or even a place to "connect" and/or

to disconnect: monitoring (tab on top of the gui) -> vpn -> vpn statistics ->

sessions -> logout sessions

to connect: you will need to send some traffic through the tunnel that matches the crypto acl

You can do this using the gui.

How do I know if the Cisco is trying to

look at the counters under: monitoring (tab on top of the gui) -> vpn -> vpn statistics -> global IKE/ipsec statistics ->
