What does this represent? The Backend row shows the stats for the whole backend. Here the numbers are almost the same as your "s" server because it is the only server configured in the backend. If there was many, the backend numbers will be around the sum of the server numbers (for each column). > That "Backend" row shows a limit of 200 (marked with red in the photo > http://i.imgur.com/YWNsStZ.png ).

The fullconn is about setting dynamic maxconn on backend servers. You can read more about it in the docs http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#4-fullconn You need to consider the "fullconn" parameter if you have set up "minconn" in server lines (to use dynamic maxconn), otherwise you can ignore it.
