gerrit show-connections

gerrit show-connections - Display active client SSH connections

Presents a table of the active SSH connections, the users who are currently connected to the internal server and performing an activity.

Caller must be a member of the privileged Administrators group.

Intended for interactive use only.

-n

--numeric

Show client hostnames as IP addresses instead of DNS hostname.

Start

Time (local to the server) that this connection started.

Idle

Time since the last data transfer on this connection. Note that most SSH clients use not only a TCP based connection keep-alive, but also an encrypted keep alive higher up in the SSH protocol stack. That higher keep alive resets the idle timer, about once a minute.

User

The SSH User Name of the account that is authenticated on this connection. If the -n option is used, this column shows the Account Id instead.

Remote Host

Reverse lookup hostname, or if -n option is used, the remote IP address.

[ second line ]

Command(s) actively being executed on this connection. With SSH channel multiplexing a single connection can perform multiple commands, or a connection can be idle, performing nothing at all.

With reverse DNS lookup (default):

$ ssh -p 29418 review.example.com gerrit show-connections
    Start     Idle   User            Remote Host

Without reverse DNS lookup:

$ ssh -p 29418 review.example.com gerrit show-connections -n
    Start     Idle   User            Remote Host
