  • Can you explain a little more? I'm not sure I understand what you are looking for? Connection count of members? Do you mean the quantity of all the connections going to all the servers? Does DIPs = Destination IP's? Are you asking about configuration objects like how many Virtual IP's it has?

      I implied number of active connections for a pool member. By DIPs I implied a pool member.

      Hi James, Do we have any icontrol API to get the Pool member - active connection count?

        which value do you want.
    
  • You can retrieve the pool member stats, including the current connection count, for all members of a pool by hitting the member stats page:

     

    I.e.: https://MyF5.com/mgmt/tm/ltm/pool/pool_10.3.3.31/members/stats

     

    You can also retrieve stats for individual pool members by hitting the individual member's stat page:

     

    I.e. https://MyF5.com/mgmt/tm/ltm/pool/pool_10.3.3.31/members/~Common~10.3.3.31:80/stats

     

    I believe the value you will want to examine is serverside.curConns to get the current connection count.
