# Anypoint VPN downtime risk

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

Every VPN provisioned in Mulesoft has an associated risk that depends on the state of the VPN
tunnels.

For high downtime risk VPNs, deploy a [high-availability VPN](https://docs.mulesoft.com/cloudhub/vpn-high-availability) solution to
avoid any downtime associated with AWS-delivered auto-updates. See
[VPN Maintenance](https://docs.mulesoft.com/cloudhub/vpn-maintenance) for more details.

## Downtime Risk types

VPN downtime risk depends on the number of UP tunnels.

There are three types of downtime risks:

- UNAVAILABLE

- LOW

- HIGH

If both tunnels of the VPN are down, the VPN downtime risk is **UNAVAILABLE**, since no data is
going through the VPN.

If the VPN has one tunnel UP and the other one DOWN, then the VPN has **HIGH** downtime risk.

If the VPN has both tunnels UP, then the VPN has **LOW** downtime risk.

## Check the VPN Risk in Anypoint Platform

You can check the downtime risk associated with your VPNs in Anypoint Platform.

To check your VPN downtime risk:

1.  Sign in to Anypoint Platform.

2.  Go to Runtime Manager.

3.  Open the **VPNs** tab.

4.  Check the **Downtime Risk** column for your VPN.
