Hello Gary,

Total outbound sengments :        0  <===  sengments???

Yes, well it might be a miss-spelling... or it could be a feature...  When you key
word search in the solutions data base you will find a lot of matches with the
word "sengments", but few with the word "sengments" so it would be easier to
find the info for your problem if you can keyword search on a unique word.

Just kidding of course... you are correct, it is miss-spelled.

James-

Thank you for your detailed response.  You are appreciated!

With this info I am now looking at several client's systems, before they come under load for the day, and I'll check again mid-day to see how it looks.

BTW, I discovered a typo in Nettool:

Cumulative Statistics
---------------------
    . Total active opens :        0
    . Total passive opens :        0
    . Total inbound segments :        0
    . Total outbound sengments :        0  <===  sengments???
    . Total re-transmitted segments :        0


Again, thanks a bunch!

Gary

Subject: NETXPORT TCP SIP


Hello Gary, all,



RE: NETXPORT TCP SIP



TCP connections use is dependant on your networked applications.  Telnet or Virtual Terminal session's typically use 1 connection per user, but may use more if multiple windows are opened to a host.  FTP typically uses 2 connections per request, but with an MPUT or MGET can have active as many data connections as files can be transferred in a 2 minute period.  Web applications can open & close 'many' TCP connections per web page, icon, picture, etc within a 2 minute period.  Apparently CSTM can use 'many' TCP connections.  One must keep in mind that when a TCP connection is opened and closed it continues to exist on the system for 2+ minutes (maximum "time to live" TTL *2) to assure any outstanding packets for a connection in the network are not received on a new instance (reuse) of a TCP connection id.  The default as per NMMGR recommendation is 1024... max is 20kb connections.  I recommend every system be configured for at least the default and to use nettool;info="stat;tcp;tcpg

 @;quit" displaying the "Number of connections currently open" stat to monitor the actual number of connections.   I would want go be configured for 2* the maximum seen reported by NETTOOL at an increment of 256.
