Question:

Why the total sessions displayed on Nebula does not match with the sessions shown on the console using the command show conn ip-traffic source?

Answer:

Different commands display different types of session data. Specifically:

Router> show conn ip-traffic source

This command shows only the forwarding sessions by source IP.

Router> show conn status

This total sessions displayed on Nebula shows all sessions, including forwarding, local out, and internal query sessions.
