About MMS Streaming Connections

The Active Sessions feature displays connection statistics for MMS streams over HTTP, TCP, or UDP only. Multicast connections are not displayed. When an MMS stream is displayed, the service name is listed as “HTTP” or “MMS” (depending on the transport used) and the protocol indicates “Windows Media.”

Figure 5-6. MMS Streaming Connection Example

Viewing Sessions with Multiple Connections

When multiple client or server connections are associated with a single session, the Client column provides a tree-view that allows you to expand the row to view more details about the associated connections. The tree view is represented by the icon.

The following figure shows an HTTP example of this tree view.

Figure 5-7. Multiple Server Connections Example

HTTP

The tree view displays (as shown above) for HTTP if multiple hosts are contacted during a session or if pipelining is used.

FTP

FTP uses multiple, concurrent connections. These are represented as separate rows in the tree view, as shown in the following figure.

Figure 5-8. FTP Connections Example

CIFS, MAPI, and Endpoint Mapper do not display multiple connections.
