I have a number of SSH tunnels set up between our company's server (hosts website) and our customer's servers (hosts database). For all sites but one the connection is relatively stable however one site is persistently causing problems. I was checking to see if the connection was still there using the following command;
netsta -aN | grep 24011
And got this output;
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:24011 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:24011 127.0.0.1:46183 ESTABLISHED

tcp6 0 0 127.0.0.1:46182 127.0.0.1:24011 ESTABLISHED
Could someone explain exactly what is going on here as for any other connection when i netstat i get the following results;
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:24002 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp6 0 0 ::1:24002 :::* LISTEN
Where all these connections coming from and are they possibly the reason for my connection not working.
