How to check new sessions per second in ASA

[raditya pratama]

Hi, 

I am trying to figure out how to check new sessions per second in ASA for capacity planning.

I know that we can use show conn count to check the current connection, but I haven't found how to check new sessions per second.
Is there any way or command to do that?

Thanks,

Raditya P

try below :

ciscoasa# show conn count 
0 in use, 8 most used
ciscoasa# show resource usage resource rate conns
Resource Current Peak Limit Denied Context

ciscoasa# show perfmon detail

                                       N/A         100.00%

SETUP RATES:

Hi balaji.bandi,

Yes that works, thank you very much

But for the show perfmon detail, you need to do it from the context other than system

asa# show resource usage resource rate conns
Resource Current Peak Limit Denied Context
Conns [rate] 0 139 unlimited 0 admin
Conns [rate] 372 16607 unlimited 0 context1
Conns [rate] 3 337 unlimited 0 context2

asa/context1# show perfmon detail

Context: context1
PERFMON STATS: Current Average
Xlates 0/s 0/s
Connections 291/s 190/s
TCP Conns 233/s 133/s
UDP Conns 22/s 20/s
URL Access 0/s 0/s
URL Server Req 0/s 0/s
TCP Fixup 0/s 0/s
TCP Intercept Established Conns 0/s 0/s
TCP Intercept Attempts 0/s 0/s
TCP Embryonic Conns Timeout 0/s 1/s
FTP Fixup 0/s 0/s
AAA Authen 0/s 0/s
AAA Author 0/s 0/s
AAA Account 0/s 0/s
HTTP Fixup 0/s 0/s

VALID CONNS RATE in TCP INTERCEPT: Current Average
N/A N/A

SETUP RATES:
Connections for 1 minute = 264/s; 5 minutes = 551/s
TCP Conns for 1 minute = 207/s; 5 minutes = 493/s
UDP Conns for 1 minute = 22/s; 5 minutes = 22/s

yes if that is multi-context.
