Overview

Datadog Cloud Network Monitoring (CNM) gives you visibility into your network traffic between services, containers, availability zones, and any other tag in Datadog. Connection data at the IP, port, and PID levels is aggregated into application-layer dependencies between meaningful client and server endpoints, which can be analyzed and visualized through a customizable network page and network map. Use flow data along with key network traffic and DNS server metrics to:

Pinpoint unexpected or latent service dependencies
Optimize costly cross-regional or multi-cloud communication
Identify outages of cloud provider regions and third-party tools
Troubleshoot client-side and server-side DNS server issues

This section includes the following topics:

: Configure the Agent to collect network data.

: Review the health of your network environment.

: Graph your network data between each client and server available.

: Visualize the route that network traffic follows from its origin to its destination using scheduled tests.

: Dynamically create tests to allow the Agent to automatically discover and monitor network paths.

: Map your network data between your tags.

: Configure Common CNM monitors.
