In a MikroTik router, how can you view the active connections?

To view active connections on a MikroTik router, the correct command is found under the IP firewall feature. This command, /ip firewall connection, allows users to view a detailed list of all currently active connections that are being tracked by the router's firewall. This is crucial for monitoring, troubleshooting, or optimizing network performance, as it provides insights into how traffic is flowing through the router and can help identify issues with specific connections.

In contrast, other options either do not exist in the MikroTik command structure or do not serve the intended purpose of displaying active connections. For example, /ip connections is not a valid command, while /connection list and /active connections do not correspond to any recognized commands within the MikroTik interface. Therefore, the command /ip firewall connection is the only valid and effective option for viewing active connections.
