Hi @DSI_MYAUCHAN,
Thank you for visiting SonicWall Community.
Since you have performed a NAT over a VPN tunnel, the firewall will consume the packets from IP address 10.45.36.170 and will perform NAT operation to change the IP address to 10.114.3.36 and forwards the same packets over the VPN tunnel to destined IP 10.171.6.20.
Hence both consumed and forwarded packet status are shown.
Please take a look at the below KB article for packet status types in SonicWall.
Hope this helps.
