Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for providing connection data related to a firewall. In one aspect, computer-readable media provide a method that includes receiving a request for a set of connection parameters of a firewall related to data packets processed by at least one non-CPU device of the firewall. The method further includes identifying raw data of a session table that corresponds to the requested connection parameters. The method additionally includes calculating a result for the requested connection parameters from the raw data, and providing the result in a format detailing a number of connections for each connection parameter.
