Vcenter Utilization Connections TcpState

The Vcenter Utilization Connections TcpState enumerated type represents the possible states of a TCP connection as defined by Section 3.3.2 of Transmission Control Protocol [RFC 9293].

Possible values:

  • ESTABLISHED: The connection is fully established and data can be exchanged.
  • SYN_SENT: The client sent a SYN packet to the server and is waiting for the SYN-ACK reply.
  • SYN_RECV: The server received the SYN packet from the client and sent a SYN-ACK packet back to the client.
  • FIN_WAIT1: One side of the connection sent a FIN packet to the other side to initiate the termination of the connection.
  • FIN_WAIT2: The side that sent the FIN packet received an ACK from the other side.
  • TIME_WAIT: One side waits for a period of time to ensure the other side has received the final ACK before transitioning to CLOSE.
  • CLOSE: The connection on this side is completely terminated, with no further data transfer possible, indicating that all cleanup has been completed.
  • CLOSE_WAIT: One side of the connection has received a FIN from its peer and is waiting for the local application to close the connection by sending its own FIN.
  • LAST_ACK: The side of the connection that sent the final FIN packet waits for the final ACK.
  • LISTEN: The server socket is passively waiting for incoming connection requests from clients.
  • CLOSING: Both endpoints have simultaneously sent FIN packets and each is waiting for the final ACK from the other to confirm complete connection termination.

This enumeration was added in vSphere API 9.1.0.0.
