Native LB Traffic and Monitoring

Beta

The Traffic portal page is an open beta. The functionality is working but we plan to add more features to this section before removing the tag.

V1 LB Required

This section of the portal only works when the V1 load balancer is selected for the given environment.

IDLE Timeout

If a load balancer hasn't received traffic for longer than the period set in idle timeout, the statistics will be reset.

Traffic Dashboard​

The traffic dashboard is laid out to allow the user quick looks into their load balancer telemetry by port.

With the appropriate port selected, users get a clear look at several high level metrics including:
