Hello!

To calculate concurrent sessions and new sessions per second on your firewall, start by determining the maximum number of sessions your firewall can handle simultaneously, which is typically specified in its hardware specifications. For new sessions per second, monitor the firewall's performance over a period and calculate the average number of new sessions initiated per second. Use CLI commands like show session info and show system statistics session to get detailed session information.

Hello,

The session statistic informations are store in dp-monitor.log.

To see this log file you can use the CLI command "less mp-log dp-monitor.log"

To search for a specific session parameter historical date, use commands like

  • grep mp-log dp-monitor.log pattern "New connection establish rate:"  - for new connections per second evolution
  • grep mp-log dp-monitor.log pattern "Number of allocated sessions:"   - for maximum concurrent session evolution

 

Depending on your firewall model, you may need to replace mp-log with dp-log on the above CLI commands.

Cheers,
Cosmin
