NimbostratusInspecting HTTP LB traffic for security
Hi,
I'm looking for an option to inspect the traffic that goes within my HTTP Load Balancers for security reasons. On BIGIP-LTM I have used the Clone Pool solution or developed my own iRules.
Does the Distributed Cloud version suggest a similar feature? maybe a logs?
Thanks
As it is HTTP Load Balancer there is similar logs like for F5 Analytics if you have used it before on the F5 device or the F5 BIG-IQ application logs.

Also you can send the logs to splunk/ELK or use an API to get the logs as anything with XC can be done with API:
