Connections views in MainView for IP
The connections views provide real-time data about all TCP and UDP connections on your system. A connection is a path between two protocol applications that provides reliable data-stream-delivery service.
You can use the connections views to see what information is being accessed and to assess application performance.
The connections views display all connections for each view, along with real-time data associated with each connection.
- Local and remote ports
- Local and remote IP addresses
- Byte count information
- Response times
- Job and application names
- Changing TCP/IP parameters dynamically
You can display more information by drilling down to the detailed view. All closed connections are displayed until the interval ends. You can issue commands to accomplish the following tasks:
- Traceroute the remote IP address (TR)
- Ping the remote IP address (P)
- Drop the connection (DR)
- Packet trace the remote IP address (PKT)
The following table describes the views that provide detailed information about all TCP and UDP connections on your system. You can use the views to quickly see real-time data about the IP stack.
