ss 命令用法
The ss command is used to show socket statistics. It can display stats for PACKET sockets, TCP sockets, UDP sockets, DCCP sockets, RAW sockets, Unix domain sockets, and more. It allows showing information similar to netstat command. It can display more TCP and state information than other tools. It is a new, incredibly useful and faster (as compare to netstat) tool for tracking TCP connections and sockets. SS can provide information about:
- All TCP sockets.
- All UDP sockets.
- All established ssh / ftp / http / https connections.
- All local processes connected to X server.
- Filtering by state (such as connected, synchronized, SYN-RECV, SYN-SENT,TIME-WAIT), addresses and ports.
- All the tcp sockets in state FIN-WAIT-1 and much more.
Most Linux distributions are shipped with ss and many monitoring tools. Being familiar with this tool helps enhance your understand of what's going on in the system sockets and helps you find the possible causes of a performance problem.
Task: Display Sockets Summary
List currently established, closed, orphaned and waiting TCP sockets, enter:
# ss -s
Sample Output:
Total: 734 (kernel 904) TCP: 1415 (estab 112, closed 1259, orphaned 11, synrecv 0, timewait 1258/0), ports 566 Transport Total IP IPv6 * 904 - - RAW 0 0 0 UDP 15 12 3 TCP 156 134 22 INET 171 146 25 FRAG 0 0 0
Task: Display All Open Network Ports
# ss -l
Sample Output:
ss -l Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port 0 0 127.0.0.1:smux *:* 0 0 127.0.0.1:10024 *:* 0 0 127.0.0.1:10025 *:* 0 0 *:3306 *:* 0 0 *:http *:* 0 0 *:4949 *:* 0 0 *:domain *:* 0 0 *:ssh *:* 0 0 *:smtp *:* 0 0 127.0.0.1:rndc *:* 0 0 127.0.0.1:6010 *:* 0 0 *:https *:* 0 0 :::34571 :::* 0 0 :::34572 :::* 0 0 :::34573 :::* 0 0 ::1:rndc :::*
Type the following to see process named using open socket:
# ss -pl
Find out who is responsible for opening socket / port # 4949:
# ss -lp | grep 4949
Sample output:
0 0 *:4949 *:* users:(("munin-node",3772,5))
munin-node (PID # 3772) is responsible for opening port # 4949. You can get more information about this process (like memory used, users, current working directory and so on) visiting /proc/3772 directory:
# cd /proc/3772
# ls -l
Task: Display All TCP Sockets
# ss -t -a
Task: Display All UDP Sockets
# ss -u -a
Task: Display All RAW Sockets
# ss -w -a
Task: Display All UNIX Sockets
# ss -x -a
Sample outputs:
Fig.01: ss command in action
Task: Display All Established SMTP Connections
# ss -o state established '( dport = :smtp or sport = :smtp )'
Task: Display All Established HTTP Connections
# ss -o state established '( dport = :http or sport = :http )'
Task: Find All Local Processes Connected To X Server
# ss -x src /tmp/.X11-unix/*
Task: List All The Tcp Sockets in State FIN-WAIT-1
List all the TCP sockets in state -FIN-WAIT-1 for our httpd to network 202.54.1/24 and look at their timers:
# ss -o state fin-wait-1 '( sport = :http or sport = :https )' dst 202.54.1/24
How Do I Filter Sockets Using TCP States?
The syntax is as follows:
## tcp ipv4 ## ss -4 state FILTER-NAME-HERE ## tcp ipv6 ## ss -6 state FILTER-NAME-HERE
Where FILTER-NAME-HERE can be any one of the following,
- established
- syn-sent
- syn-recv
- fin-wait-1
- fin-wait-2
- time-wait
- closed
- close-wait
- last-ack
- listen
- closing
- all : All of the above states
- connected : All the states except for listen and closed
- synchronized : All the connected states except for syn-sent
- bucket : Show states, which are maintained as minisockets, i.e. time-wait and syn-recv.
- big : Opposite to bucket state.
Examples
Type the following command to see closing sockets:
ss -4 state closing
Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port 1 11094 75.126.153.214:http 175.44.24.85:4669
How Do I Matches Remote Address And Port Numbers?
Use the following syntax:
ss dst ADDRESS_PATTERN ## Show all ports connected from remote 192.168.1.5## ss dst 192.168.1.5 ## show all ports connected from remote 192.168.1.5:http port## ss dst 192.168.1.5:http ss dst 192.168.1.5:smtp ss dst 192.168.1.5:443
Find out connection made by remote 123.1.2.100:http to our local virtual servers:
# ss dst 123.1.2.100:http
Sample outputs:
State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port ESTAB 0 0 75.126.153.206:http 123.1.2.100:35710 ESTAB 0 0 75.126.153.206:http 123.1.2.100:35758
How Do I Matches Local Address And Port Numbers?
ss src ADDRESS_PATTERN ### find out all ips connected to nixcraft.com ip address 75.126.153.214 ### ## Show all ports connected to local 75.126.153.214## ss src 75.126.153.214 ## http (80) port only ## ss src 75.126.153.214:http ss src 75.126.153.214:80 ## smtp (25) port only ## ss src 75.126.153.214:smtp ss src 75.126.153.214:25
How Do I Compare Local and/or Remote Port To A Number?
Use the following syntax:
## Compares remote port to a number ## ss dport OP PORT ## Compares local port to a number ## sport OP PORT
Where OP can be one of the following:
- <= or le : Less than or equal to port
- >= or ge : Greater than or equal to port
- == or eq : Equal to port
- != or ne : Not equal to port
- < or gt : Less than to port
- > or lt : Greater than to port
- Note: le, gt, eq, ne etc. are use in unix shell and are accepted as well.

ss vs netstat command speed
Use the time command to run both programs and summarize system resource usage. Type the netstat command as follows:
# time netstat -at
Sample outputs:
real 2m52.254s user 0m0.178s sys 0m0.170s
Now, try the ss command:
# time ss -atr
Sample outputs:
real 2m11.102s user 0m0.124s sys 0m0.068s
Note: Both outputs are taken from reverse proxy acceleration server running on RHEL 6.x amd64
