Firewall – CISCO ASA 5510: How to view the number of connections per second

ciscocisco-asafirewall

In my company we have a busy network (over +500 computers), all these computers before go the internet pass through our CISCO ASA 5510.

How can I view the number of connections per second? At a specific moment or averagely.

You could use the #show conn count command. This will provide you with an output similar to this:

myASAApp#show conn count    
9 in use, 429 most used

Its pretty useful show command.

Although I agree with @jcollie; ASDM has a nice real-time connections / traffic summary, simular to this: alt text

Hope that helps
