What is cufwConnGlobalNumActive?

This gauge reports the number of connections, across all protocols, that are currently active on the firewall. An admin uses this as the real-time load indicator for the firewall's connection table, useful for capacity planning and for spotting an unexpected surge in concurrent sessions. For example, a value approaching the firewall's rated maximum concurrent connections would prompt an admin to investigate before new connections start getting declined for lack of resources.
