Logging connections per second

[Daniel_Kavan]

Hi,

I have logging set to Accounting per session and per connection from a specific source to a specific destination IP, but I'm not seeing connections per second in the logs, just inbound and outbound packet counts.   A customer wants to know connections per second, and the only way I've been able to do it is with a combination of tcpdump and cpmonitor tool on the gateway.   Does that sound like the best way to do it (tcpdump & cpmonitor)?

Maybe below helps?

Smart way to gauge log entries per second? - Check Point CheckMates

The only mechanism that I'm aware of that is even aware of the number of connections is fwaccel dos rules.
I don't think we log or otherwise track the number of connections per second to/from a specific host (or in aggregate).
