2.5.5 System - Network
System > Network > TCP Connection Status
Displays the system-wide Network TCP connection status information in a graph.
Each item looks like this
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
LISTEN |
The port is open and waiting for a connection request so it can receive the request. |
SYN_SENT |
The local has attempted to remotely signal a connection request (SYN). |
SYN_RECV |
Connection request received from the remote The request was received and responded with SYN and ACK signals, but no ACK was received. If there are a lot of SYN_RECVs, you can suspect a TCP SYNC Flooding attack. |
ESTABLISHED |
Still connected to each other. |
FIN_WAIT1 |
The socket is closed and the connection is being terminated, but you can still receive responses from the remote. |
FIN_WAIT2 |
The local connection is waiting for a request to close the connection from the remote. |
CLOSE_WAIT |
The local connection has received a remote connection request and is waiting for the connection to be closed. FIN and ACK signals are received from the remote and an ACK is sent to the remote. |
TIME_WAIT |
The connection is closed but waiting for an acknowledgment signal from the remote. You will see this value a lot when Apache has KeepAlive turned off. |
LAST_ACK |
The connection is closed and waiting for an acknowledgment. |
CLOSE |
The connection is completely closed. |
CLOSING |
Connection closed but data was lost in transit |
UNKNOWN |
The socket status is unknown. |

System > Network > Traffic
Graphically displays the number of send and receive bytes per second of data for each network interface card in the system.

System > Network > Transmission Packets
Graphs the number of send/receive packets per second of data for each network interface card in the system.

System > Network > Packet Errors
Graphs the number of packet errors per second of data for each network interface card in the system.
If you are experiencing packet errors or drops, it is likely that you are experiencing excessive network load. It is recommended to check the network or operating system kernel parameters (network related).
