Enable the per-second monitoring feature - Data Collection| Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center

This topic describes how to enable the per-second monitoring feature for an elastic IP address (EIP). This feature allows you to ship logs that contain monitoring data to Log Service.

Prerequisites

An EIP is created. For more information, see Apply for new EIPs.
A Log Service project and Logstore are created in the region where the EIP resides. For more information, see Step 1: Create a project and a Logstore.
Log Service is authorized to access Alibaba Cloud resources. For more information, see Authorize VPC to access Log Service resources and Authorize Log Service to access other cloud resources.
Note
- The preceding operation is required only when you enable the feature for the first time.
- If you use a Resource Access Management (RAM) user, you must use an Alibaba Cloud account to authorize the RAM user.
- You must not revoke or delete the required RAM roles. Otherwise, EIP logs cannot be sent to Log Service.

Procedure

Log on to the Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) console.
In the upper-left corner of the page, select the region where the EIP resides.
In the left-side navigation pane, choose Elastic IP Addresses > High Definition Traffic Monitor.
Find the required EIP and click Enable Per-second Monitoring.
In the Log Settings dialog box, select a log project and a Logstore from the drop-down lists, and click OK.

What to do next

After EIP logs are collected by using Log Service, you can search, analyze, download, ship, and transform these logs. You can also configure alerts for these logs. For more information, see Common operations on logs of Alibaba Cloud services.
