Faddom uses different colors for connections to represent the status of each connection. Here we will go over these colors and explain the meaning of each.
Activity Status Color
Color | Meaning |
Active connections. An active connection is a connection that we have seen traffic for very recently. | |
Idle connections. A connection that we have seen traffic for within the last half hour | |
Inactive connections. A connection that we have not seen any traffic on for the past hour or more. | |
Connection with no response. This connection was detected to be active or idle, but there was no response detected. This may be due to a firewall blocking the connection or a service that is down. | |
Connection from a virtual IP on a Load Balancer to a server | |
| Short dotted lines appear for connections that are related to the server but are not part of the application map. |
 | Long dotted lines appear for connections that are not part of the map directly, but have been manually added to the map. |
