• Kernel Module Status
– Observe statistic count
for network connection
and memory usage
– conntrack_count is the total
connection monitored
– ESTABLISHED is the total connection
in TCP established state
– Deployment or switch setting problem
if ESTABLISHED is relatively low

Debug Portal and Feature (Cont)
• SYN flood protection
– Too much syn_contrack indicate
TDA may be under SYN flood
or DDoS attack
– TDA can survive and working
under packet rate < 200,000
and 1,000,000 syn packets

Debug Portal and Feature (Cont)
• Memory protection
– when user memory is used
too much, TDA will drop
the oldest session
• Used too much user memory
(nr_pages >= 4730M)
• Usually means the application
is too busy and slow
• tail -f /var/log/kernel.log

Debug Portal and Feature (Cont)
• Memory protection
– when kernel memory is not enough
or used too much, TDA will drop
the oldest session
• Used too much kernel memory
(sum of nr_xx_bytes > 550M)
• Usually means throughput too
high

Debug Portal and Feature (Cont)
• Network Flow Status
– TDA periodically detect if packet or connection is dropping
because of TDA memory protection or traffic exceed connection
track table capacity
– Network Flow turns red if packet or session keeps dropping
for more than 1 minutes
– TDA detection will not be
guaranteed under
such condition
