Darren, I noticed on another box that it looks like this:
IP states added:
446043 TCP
735333 UDP
21536 ICMP
80110891 hits
47075066 misses
0 maximum
0 no memory
92 bkts in use
92 active
756869 expired
445951 closed
bkts and active pretty much matching up.
But on the box that is having the issue (and a bunch more traffic and
connections)
IP states added:
503251 TCP
103500 UDP
63074 ICMP
59277927 hits
31067012 misses
49128 maximum
0 no memory
44 bkts in use
9040 active
166568 expired
494217 closed
When I check the state table I see about 44 connections.. certainly
not 9 thousand by any means, if this helps at all.
Almost seems like the count is not decrementing or something once the
state is actually cleared.
Thanks,

Hi there,
running FreeBSD 6.1 stable with:
ipf: IP Filter: v4.1.13 (416)
Kernel: IP Filter: v4.1.13
Running: yes
Log Flags: 0x20000000 = block
Default: block all, Logging: available
Active list: 1
Feature mask: 0xa
..
If we run ipfstat -FS it only clears a few states.. If I run
ipfstat -
sl we only see a fraction of the states.
On previous versions ipfstat -FS always knocked the state table to
zero then it started building again.
I think you mean "ipf -FS". Try "ipf -FS -Fs".
