# Connectivity status

The Cloudflare One Client (formerly WARP) GUI displays the following status messages when transitioning from a **Disconnected** to **Connected** state. These messages indicate the connectivity stage of the Cloudflare One Client daemon as it establishes a connection from the device to Cloudflare. The [client mode](https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/team-and-resources/devices/cloudflare-one-client/configure/modes/) determines which messages are displayed during the connection process. If the Cloudflare One Client encounters an error while connecting, the status message will change to an [error code](https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/team-and-resources/devices/cloudflare-one-client/troubleshooting/client-errors/).

To print status messages to the console, run the `warp-cli -l status` command before connecting the client.
