Flow Logs

Flow logs feature captures IPv4 and IPv6 network traffic flows and helps debug connectivity issues and monitor network performance. Flow logs are stored in an IONOS S3 Object Storage bucket and can be accessed for analysis and visualization. Traffic flow details include source/destination IP addresses, ports, protocol, packet count, bytes, and capture times. Logs are stored in intervals, prefixed with a timestamp, and can be retained or deleted manually or through automatic configuration. Configurations, once set, cannot be altered, and there is a limit of one flow log per network interface, Managed NAT Gateway, and Managed Network Load Balancer.
