NETSTAT -A command displays too many TCP/IP connections
Running the NETSTAT -A command from the command prompt shows a large number of TCP/IP connections established by the ipMonitor software. If ipMonitor is unable to open new connections, monitor failures can occur.
Overview
Running the NETSTAT -A command from the command prompt shows a large number of TCP/IP connections established by the ipMonitor software. This increased network traffic can affect ipMonitor's ability to create new connections, especially since many existing TCP/IP connections remain in a reserved TIME_WAIT state. Ultimately, if ipMonitor is unable to open new connections, monitor failures can occur.
Environment
ipMonitor 10.8;ipMonitor 10.x
Cause
The majority of TCP/IP connections displayed are ephemeral ports that have already been closed, but that remain reserved before they can be reused. This reserved state is denoted by the netstat TIME_WAIT label.
Microsoft limits the number of connections to 3975 by default, meaning that there can only be 3975 TCP/IP connections open at any given time. In addition, the TIME_WAIT state is configured by default to be 240 seconds. This means that Windows can only support an average of 33 TCP/IP connections per second. ipMonitor must then wait 240 seconds before being able to reuse those connections. If you have a large number of configured Monitors set to retest resources at short intervals, 3975 connections every four minutes may not be enough.
Resolution
Warning: Windows registry changes can result in severe system damage if performed incorrectly. Before you modify the registry, make a backup copy and ensure you understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs.
Attempt the troubleshooting steps in the following order:
Increase the refresh time between monitor tests
If possible, SolarWinds recommends configuring your monitors to use the default value of 300 seconds between monitor tests. This optimal setting ensures there are enough TCP connections available when needed.
Increase the maximum simultaneous connections
Start the Registry Editor(Regedt32.exe).
Access the following registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Add a DWORD value to this registry key:
Name: MaxUserPort
Type: DWORD
Value: 65534 (decimal)
Exit the Registry Editor.
Note: This section can also be used as reference during large Server & Application Monitor (SAM) installations.
Reduce the duration of the Reserved State
Reducing the value of the TIME_WAIT state results in TCP connections being reused faster, therefore allowing for an increased number of connections during the same length of time. Note that if the value is too low, the TCP connection may close before monitor testing is complete.
Start the Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
Access the following registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Add a DWORD value to this registry key:
Name: TcpTimedWaitDelay
Type: REG_DWORD - Time in seconds
Value: 120 (decimal)
Exit the Registry Editor.
