This windows powershell script is useful for outputting the TCP ports and number of connections

Get-NetTCPConnection | group localport -NoElement | sort count -descending

I would like to have this on a graph so i can monitor spikes/drops in traffic Just one port would suffice, or a range

I'm specifically interested in seeing port usage (number of TCP CONNECTIONS) is there a sensor that has this already?

port prtg snmp

Hello there

Thank you for reaching us. It all depends on the device you are using to monitor these TCP connections, would it be on a computer or firewall?'' here are some KB articles related to this topic.
