CSM Sticky counters

[mruuth]

I am investigating resources for a new application that must have sticky set. I'm looking att counters for sticky and are a little confused. See following info.

sho mod csm 5 sticky group 16

group sticky-data real timeout

Group CurrConns Timeout Type

------------------------------------------------------------

16 27 120 src-ip netmask 255.255.255.255

The number of entries in sticky table and number of CurrConns doesn´t matsh. Is it a bug? How do I find out how meny entry I have in the sticky database? From my understanding ther can be 256.000 entries. Is it planned to increase that number? I'm running Ver 4.1(2).

Currconns is number of connections.

When source ip address can have multiple connections open, it will only create 1 single sticky entry.

There is no plan to increase the number of entries.

If you think you will need more, change the netmask, this will reduce the number of entries required.

there in no command I'm aware of to see the size of the table.

You will have to print it out and have a script to count the number of lines.
