Current connections...

you can use the CLI and tmsh to show the of connections for a pool or vip:

[someone@bigip01:Active] config tmsh show ltm pool poolname

Status Availability : available State : enabled Reason : The pool is available

Traffic ServerSide Bits In 3.2G Bits Out 2.7G Packets In 1.4M Packets Out 886.7K Current Connections 79 Maximum Connections 122 Total Connections 8.0K

[someone@bigip01:Active] config tmsh show ltm virtual xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Status Availability : available State : enabled Reason : The virtual server is available CMP : enabled CMP Mode : all-cpus

Traffic ClientSide Ephemeral General Bits In 424.7M 0 - Bits Out 393.4M 0 - Packets In 249.7K 0 - Packets Out 172.1K 0 - Current Connections 8 0 - Maximum Connections 31 0 - Total Connections 1.0K 0 - Min Conn Duration/msec - - 739 Max Conn Duration/msec - - 423.5M Mean Conn Duration/msec - - 21.7M Total Requests - - 0

You can also view the connections stats from the GUI:

click on a virtual server then the statistics tab. same goes for a pool and it should show current connections

for persistence table checks run this command:

b conn | grep host address or tmsh show ltm persistence persist-records

tmsh show ltm persistence persist-records node-addr

Please could someone help me to understand "how F5 LTM pool member statistics is calculated for the Maximum connection " Also Total connection value is always way larger .

Example - Mem 1 -curr: 937 Max : 2.3K total :12.0M

• Curr is the current number of active connections
• Max is the highest number of active connections ever seen (high water mark)
• Total is the total number of connections this pool member has handled since last reboot or statistics reset
