Access Logging
This section highlights the observability features of the Network Load Balancer (NLB) access logging. The NLB supports extensive logging, which provide visibility into the network traffic. When enabled, all logs are transmitted to our observability system, where they can be queried and analyzed for valuable insights. Central logging must be enabled for this functionality, ensuring effective monitoring and troubleshooting of network traffic. This allows for proactive identification and resolution of potential issues, enhancing overall network performance and reliability.
Accessing Logs
Once central logging is enabled, logs from your NLB will be sent to the logging service. You can access and analyze these logs using a dedicated Grafana instance.
Enable Central Logging
Requirement: Enabling central logging is mandatory for the NLB to send logs.
