<div class="wiki-content maincontent"><h2>How can I monitor the connection with the broker</h2>

<p>You can monitor the status of the connection with the broker via the <a shape="rect" href="http://activemq.apache.org/maven/apidocs/org/apache/activemq/ActiveMQConnection.html#addTransportListener%28org.apache.activemq.transport.TransportListener">addTransportListener() method on the ActiveMQConnection</a>. </p>

<p>This method takes a <a shape="rect" href="http://activemq.apache.org/maven/apidocs/org/apache/activemq/transport/TransportListener.html">TransportListener</a> which is notified as the connection is established &amp; dropped. It also allows you to work with the <link><page ri:content-title="Failover Transport Reference"></page><link-body>Failover Transport</link-body></link> yet still know the status of the connection.</p>
