Inspecting 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.

https://docs.cloud.f5.com/docs/how-to/observe/monitor-http-load-balancer

https://docs.cloud.f5.com/docs/how-to/others/get-access-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:
