Curr Conn (current connections) is the number of socket connections connected to the server. Active Con (active connections) should be number of connection that are handling requests. New Conn (new connections) is how may new connections per second the server is accepting.
All of the stats traffic_top uses comes from the metrics in ATS. They can also be fetched using traffic_ctl metric match . What does your ss -s show you in the server? What version of ATS are you running? -Bryan > On Dec 1, 2022, at 6:29 AM, Nick Dunkin <[email protected]> wrote: > > HI, > > We’ve recently started using traffic_top to monitor our ATS instances, but we > are having trouble understanding some of the metrics. > > For example Curr Conn/Active Conn, who’s values seem to be significantly > higher (by an order of magnitude) than a tool like netstat, on the same > server, would suggest. > > <image002.png> > > And, the value for New Conn here is also confusing.
