Duplicate network brokers as consumers

[Siva Teja (healthAlliance)]

Hi,

I have activemq(5.17.4) setup within the network in total 4 pairs of brokers 
which acts as master slave. All of them connect to each network as below

Example of node1(akl1-mmh1)
Network Bridge
<networkConnector name="ntwrk_akl1_node2"
                              
uri="masterslave:(ssl://amq-uat-mmh2.healthcare.huarahi.health.govt.nz:61617,ssl://amq-uat-akl2.healthcare.huarahi.health.govt.nz:61617)"
                              networkTTL="3"
                              conduitSubscriptions="true"
                              decreaseNetworkConsumerPriority="true"
                              suppressDuplicateQueueSubscriptions="true"
                              duplex="false"/>
            <networkConnector name="ntwrk_akl1_node3"
                              
uri="masterslave:(ssl://amq-uat-mmh3.healthcare.huarahi.health.govt.nz:61617,ssl://amq-uat-akl3.healthcare.huarahi.health.govt.nz:61617)"
                              networkTTL="3"
                              conduitSubscriptions="true"
                              decreaseNetworkConsumerPriority="true"
                              suppressDuplicateQueueSubscriptions="true"
                              duplex="false"/>
            <networkConnector name="ntwrk_akl1_node4"
                              
uri="masterslave:(ssl://amq-uat-mmh4.healthcare.huarahi.health.govt.nz:61617,ssl://amq-uat-akl4.healthcare.huarahi.health.govt.nz:61617)"
                              networkTTL="3"
                              conduitSubscriptions="true"
                              decreaseNetworkConsumerPriority="true"
                              suppressDuplicateQueueSubscriptions="true"
                              duplex="false"/>

Transport Connector of Node1
<transportConnector name="ssl"
                    
uri="ssl://0.0.0.0:61617?transport.connectionTimeout=10000&amp;transport.trace=true&amp;transport.needClientAuth=false&amp;transport.maximumConnections=5000&amp;transport.useKeepAlive=true&amp;transport.soTimeout=60000&amp;transport.keepAlive=true&amp;wireFormat.maxFrameSize=104857600&amp;wireFormat.tightEncodingEnabled=false&amp;wireFormat.maxInactivityDuration=3600000"
                    updateClusterClients="true" 
updateClusterClientsOnRemove="true" enableStatusMonitor="true"/>

For some reason after a week or 2 the number of consumers keeps increasing to 
10+ on each node and the messages are stuck on the queue.
Sample screenshot of above issue can be found

Is there a bug if not is there a way to find these duplicate connections and 
get rid of them ?

Kind Regards
