View session commands

We are running BIGIP version 10.2.4 and i am looking for the following commands where i can view results through SSH

 

 

1) How to view current active sessions?

 

2)How to view active sessions for perticular virtual server?

 

If we run these commands on production unit is there any performance issues?

 

 

Thanks for your help

    1) b conn show 2) it is not advisable to use on overloaded prod unit. Otherwise, it works like a charm.

    if there are a ton of connections, it is better to also use filter.

    Did you ever find a command to display the sessions (users) per vip pool node? Sessions can contain may tcp connections and that is not what I need.

     

    Let me know.

     

    Thanks.
