AWS Outposts racks now support LagStatus CloudWatch metric

AWS Outposts racks now support the LagStatus Amazon CloudWatch metric in all AWS commercial Regions and the AWS GovCloud (US-East) and AWS GovCloud (US-West) Regions.

This metric provides you with the ability to monitor Outposts LAG connectivity status directly within the CloudWatch console, without having to rely on external networking tools or coordination with other teams. You can use this metric to set alarms, troubleshoot connectivity issues, and ensure your Outposts racks are properly integrated with your on-premises infrastructure. The LagStatus metric indicates whether an Outposts LAG is operationally up and ready to forward traffic. A value of “1” means that the LAG is up, while “0” means that it is down. When combined with the existing VifConnectionStatus and VifBgpSessionState metrics, you can quickly identify whether issues stem from LAG configuration, BGP peering, or connection problems.

The LagStatus metric is now available for all Outposts LAGs in all commercial AWS Regions and the AWS GovCloud (US-East) and AWS GovCloud (US-West) Regions where Outposts racks are available.

To get started, read this blog post and access the metrics in the CloudWatch console. To learn more, check out the CloudWatch metrics for AWS Outposts documentation for second-generation Outposts racks and first-generation Outposts racks.
