DESCRIPTION
       You can use the connection component to set the idle timeout for or
       delete active connections to the BIG-IP system based on a specified
       filter. Additionally, you can display information about the active
       connections to the system.

       You can specify the  option using either a number or a service
       (80 or http).

       Important: If you do not specify a port or service, the system deletes
       all connections that match just the IP address. If you do not specify
       an IP address, the system deletes all connections including mirrored
       connections.

EXAMPLES
       show connection all-properties

       Displays information about all active connections to the system.

       modify connection idle-timeout 300

       Changes the amount of idle time before a connection is disconnected to
       five minutes (300 seconds).
