Hello All,

I'm monitoring the TCP port connection on one of the application pools that connected to my application and during the monitoring using "ProcessMonitor" utility from microsoft i noticed that there is a "TCPCopy" written same as the "TCP Recieved" as shown on below screenshot.

Can anyone advise what is causing this? and how to remove it?

Note: I'm using windows server 2019

    it means the process received a copy of another process's tcp packet. I assume it is IIS passing the clone to the worker process.
