Connections Report

The Connections Report shows the number of concurrent connections as well as the connection establishment rate over time for the selected time period. This chart can answer questions such as:

• Is there an unusual number of connections or is the connection rate particularly high?
• Could I be experiencing some form of denial of service attack or network problem?”

Systems that report unusually high spikes in the number of connections or the connection rate may be experiencing some form of denial of service attack or network problem.

Where do I find this report?
