Connection state
Description
This is the current state of the TCP connection:
- Active - The connection is open. An incoming connection should always be "Active."
- Connecting – An attempt to open the connection is in progress.
- Disconnecting – The connection is in the process of being closed.
Note that for outgoing TCP connections, if no activity occurs on a TCP connection for five minutes, the TCP connection is closed and the diagnostic node for the IP address is removed. This effectively clears the diagnostics counters. When activity resumes on the TCP connection, the diagnostic node is created again. Therefore, these counters provide diagnostics only for the current active "session."
