All Connections

The All Connections tab is a live view of every internet connection on the machine, refreshed alongside the process list.

All Connections tab

Columns

ColumnMeaning
PIDOwning process ID (0 if it could not be resolved)
NameOwning process name
Local AddrLocal IP address and port on this machine
Remote AddrRemote peer address and port (blank for listeners)
StateTCP state — established · listen · time_wait · close_wait · …
FamilyAddress family — IPv4 or IPv6

The State column is colour-coded: established (green), listen (blue), time_wait (amber), and so on.

Filtering

Type in the filter box to match across all columns — by address, port, state or process name, case-insensitively. For example:

  • :443 — everything talking to or listening on port 443
  • listen — every listening socket
  • chrome — connections owned by Chrome

Relationship to the Processes tab

This tab shows all connections at once. To see only one process's connections, select it on the Processes tab — the panel below the process table shows exactly that subset.

Performance

The connections model only receives updates while this tab is visible; when it is hidden the latest snapshot is buffered and applied the moment you switch back. This avoids repainting a table nobody is looking at on every refresh tick. See Architecture.
