Established conns. Established connections to such backend (only for LSLB farms).
Pending conns. Pending connections to such backend (only for LSLB farms).
Actions. The allowed actions for backends belonging to LSLB farms are:
- Enable maintenance. The backend will be put into maintenance mode.
- Drain mode: Means no more connections will reach the backend, but already stablished connections are untouched until they finish.

By default the statistics will show a single sample of the connections found for farms and backends, but it is also possible to take samples every 10, 30, 60 and 120 seconds. You also can manually force a refresh using the refresh icon at the right of the selector.
