Monitor Open TCP Connections

rani · October 31, 2018, 11:57am

Hi all

I'm currently trying to find a way to monitor all open TCP connections via Kibana. I can't find a way to get this data via beats. Is there a way I'm missing?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi @rani and welcome

To collect socket metrics you need to enable the socket metricset in system module of metricbeat. On 6.5 there will be a new module to collect a summary with only the count of connections.

Hi @jsoriano

Thank you for the quick response! Is an official release date for 6.5 known yet?

This version is expected to be released in a few weeks, but there is no official date.
