Connections

Click on Status in the menu bar, and then click Connections below it. A window will

appear providing information about the content of the state table.

Shows the last 100

connections opened
through the firewall.
Connections are
created when traffic is
permitted to pass via
the policies.

Each connection

has two timeout values,
one in each direction.
These are updated
when the firewall
receives packets from
each end of the
connection. The value
shown in the Timeout
column is the lower of
the two values.

Possible values in

the

State column

include: TPC_CLOSE,
TCP_OPEN,
SYN_RECV, FIN_RECV and so on.

The Proto column can have:

TCP - The connection is a TCP connection

PING - The connection is an ICMP ECHO connection

UDP - The connection is a UDP connection

RAWIP - The connection uses an IP protocol other than TCP, UDP or ICMP

The Source and Destination columns show from what ip and port on the source interface

is the connection, and to what interface with what port number is the connection to.
