Hi Harry,
I looked and found that the same situation existed on some of my Virtual Servers. After running some additional tests in a controlled environment this is what I found:
Virtual Server Connections:
The Virtual Server connections will reflect the number of individual connections that a browser will try and open (most browsers will open 1 to 6 TCP Connections to download a website faster) to increase the download speed of a site.
Pool Connections:
The pool connections will on affect ACTIVE connections (information that is actively being sent and/or received to a specific node). It will not reflect the number of load balancing decisions / allocations that have been made to a node in the pool.
Hope this helps.
