If you watch a given stream long enough, there will be connection re-use and you will see a sequence of connections. Also, some windows boxes use TCP TIME-WAIT Assassination, which rapidly reuses tcp ports. http://blogs.technet.com/b/networking/archive/2010/08/11/how-tcp-time-wait-assassination-works.aspx --------- ~KEM On May 23, 2012, at 8:13 AM, nangergong wrote: Thanks! But previously I saw a tcp stream where there are several TCP connections (I mean mutiple SYN-SYN/ACK-ACK handshakes) On Wed, May 23, 2012 at 12:48 PM, Martin Visser <martinvisser99 () gmail com<mailto:martinvisser99 () gmail com>> wrote: Nangergong, A TCP stream is a single connection between two IP addresses, between the two same ports. If you see the beginning you'll see the SYN-SYN/ACK-ACK handshake, an will also see the sequence numbers increasing. Some protocols like HTTP/1.1 can have multiple higher level conversations on the one connection, so I am not sure that is what you might be seeing?
