Go to the S21 function. Your S21 power is read in dB... remember to
always use the appropriate attenuators as those VNAs are very expensive
and usually have a lower input power maximum of a watt or two.

The statements above are generalities... you should refer to the
operation manual for the exact VNA you will be using.
