AWS VPC Endpoint

The Metrics displayed for AWS VPC Endpoint include the number of concurrent active connections, the number of bytes exchanged between the endpoint and the endpoint service, aggregated bidirectionally, the number of new connections established through this endpoint, the number of packets dropped by this endpoint, the number of RST packets received by this endpoint, etc.

Configuration

Install Func

It is recommended to activate the TrueWatch Integration - Extensions - DataFlux Func (Automata): All prerequisites are automatically installed, please proceed with the script installation.

If you want to deploy Func yourself, refer to Self-deploy Func

Install Script

Note: Please prepare the required Amazon AK in advance (for simplicity, you can directly grant global read-only permissions ReadOnlyAccess)

Hosted Version Activation Script

  1. Log in to the TrueWatch console
  2. Click on the 【Integration】 menu, select 【Cloud Account Management】
  3. Click on 【Add Cloud Account】, select 【AWS】, and fill in the required information on the interface. If you have already configured the cloud account information before, you can ignore this step
  4. Click on 【Test】, and if the test is successful, click on 【Save】. If the test fails, please check whether the relevant configuration information is correct and retest
  5. Click on 【Cloud Account Management】, and you can see the added cloud account in the list. Click on the corresponding cloud account to enter the details page
  6. Click on the 【Integration】 button on the cloud account details page, find AWS VPC Endpoint under the Not Installed list, and click on the 【Install】 button. The installation interface will pop up for installation.

Manual Activation Script

  1. Log in to the Func console, click on 【Script Market】, enter the TrueWatch script market, and search for integration_aws_vpc_endpoint

  2. Click on 【Install】, and enter the corresponding parameters: AWS AK ID, AK Secret, and account name.

  3. Click on 【Deploy Startup Script】, the system will automatically create the Startup script set and automatically configure the corresponding startup scripts.

  4. After activation, you can see the corresponding automatic trigger configuration in 「Manage / Automatic Trigger Configuration」. Click on 【Execute】 to immediately execute it once without waiting for the scheduled time. Wait for a moment, and you can view the execution task records and corresponding logs.

Verification

  1. Confirm in 「Manage / Automatic Trigger Configuration」 whether the corresponding task has the corresponding automatic trigger configuration, and you can also check the corresponding task records and logs to see if there are any exceptions
  2. In TrueWatch, check if the asset information exists in 「Infrastructure / Custom」
  3. In TrueWatch, check if there is corresponding monitoring data in 「Metrics」
