Connections vs sessions

Hi,

>> Multiple transactions between the same client and server, completed over the same established TCP connection is considered a session.

i think an example for the above could be .. when a HTTP request is made .. the TCP connection is made on port 80 and after that multiple HTTP transactions like GET POST etc happen on the same port number 80 between the same client IP and server IP therefore we call this a session.

>> You also mentioned that a session may also comprise of multiple TCP connections (again between the same client and server). But I think this contradicts your initial statement reg session which says that the transactions that happen between same source and destination ips over an existing TCP connection is called a Session.

Could you please explain the above statement with an example ?.

Thanks,
