Monitor number of sessions connecting to Web Server

Post by RIDS_I2MP »

Hi Team,

Can we monitor number of sessions connecting to Web Server ?

Users will connect to web server using http and https.

How can we monitor it ?
Thanks & Regards,
I2MP Team.

What web server is being used?

How are sessions managed? Database? In-memory? Cookies?

Nagios Log Server can parse practically any web server logs to give you rough estimates of those numbers on a time interval.

Another option would be to monitor the number of connections made on port 80 and 443. https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... es/details looks like it can do this job.
