AWS Site-to-Site VPN now allows customers to publish Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) logs from VPN tunnels to AWS CloudWatch, providing enhanced visibility into VPN configurations and simplifying troubleshooting of connectivity issues.
AWS Site-to-Site VPN is a fully managed service that enables secure connections between on-premises data centers or branch offices and AWS resources using IPSec tunnels. Until now, customers only had access to tunnel activity logs showing IKE/IPSec tunnel details. With this launch, customers can now access detailed BGP logs that provide visibility into BGP session status and transitions, routing updates, and detailed BGP error states. These logs help identify configuration mismatches between AWS VPN endpoints and customer gateway devices, providing granular visibility into BGP-related events. With both VPN tunnel logs and BGP logs now available in CloudWatch, customers can more easily monitor and analyze their VPN connections, enabling faster resolution of connectivity issues.
This capability is available in all AWS commercial Regions and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions where AWS Site-to-Site VPN is available. To learn more and get started, visit the AWS Site-to-Site VPN documentation.
