An Int64 value that specifies the total number of TCP connections initiated by clients.

Examples

The following code example displays connection information.

void ShowTcpConnectionStatistics()
{
   IPGlobalProperties ^ properties = IPGlobalProperties::GetIPGlobalProperties();
   TcpStatistics ^ tcpstat = properties->GetTcpIPv4Statistics();
   Console::WriteLine( "  Connection Data:" );
   Console::WriteLine( "      Current  ............................ : {0}", 
       tcpstat->CurrentConnections );
   Console::WriteLine( "      Cumulative .......................... : {0}", 
       tcpstat->CumulativeConnections );
   Console::WriteLine( "      Initiated ........................... : {0}", 
       tcpstat->ConnectionsInitiated );
   Console::WriteLine( "      Accepted ............................ : {0}", 
       tcpstat->ConnectionsAccepted );
   Console::WriteLine( "      Failed Attempts ..................... : {0}", 
       tcpstat->FailedConnectionAttempts );
   Console::WriteLine( "      Reset ............................... : {0}", 
       tcpstat->ResetConnections );
   Console::WriteLine( "      Errors .............................. : {0}", 
       tcpstat->ErrorsReceived );
}

public static void ShowTcpConnectionStatistics()
{
    IPGlobalProperties properties = IPGlobalProperties.GetIPGlobalProperties();
    TcpStatistics tcpstat = properties.GetTcpIPv4Statistics();

    Console.WriteLine("  Connection Data:");
    Console.WriteLine("      Current  ............................ : {0}",
        tcpstat.CurrentConnections);
    Console.WriteLine("      Cumulative .......................... : {0}",
        tcpstat.CumulativeConnections);
    Console.WriteLine("      Initiated ........................... : {0}",
        tcpstat.ConnectionsInitiated);

    Console.WriteLine("      Failed Attempts ..................... : {0}",
        tcpstat.FailedConnectionAttempts);
    Console.WriteLine("      Reset ............................... : {0}",
        tcpstat.ResetConnections);
    Console.WriteLine("      Errors .............................. : {0}",
        tcpstat.ErrorsReceived);
    Console.WriteLine();
}

Remarks

IETF RFC 2012 formally defines this value as, "The number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the SYN-SENT state from the CLOSED state."
