shorewall show connections shows 2-3000 stale connections on my firewall,

most have this form

tcp      6 340940 ESTABLISHED src=192.168.182.7 dst=64.4.61.249 
sport=1341 dport=80 packets=17 bytes=15182 [UNREPLIED] src=64.4.61.249 
dst=192.168.182.7 sport=80 dpo
rt=1341 packets=0 bytes=0 mark=0 secmark=0 use=1

 From what I understand the 340940 is the timeout value,

the kernel values for this case are ...

from /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter

ip_conntrack_sctp_timeout_established:432000
ip_conntrack_tcp_timeout_established:432000

which is 5 days ....


Isn't this a huge number ????

Regards
Harry.
