Aviatrix CoPilot Features

The CostIQ feature provides detailed traffic distribution analysis for your cost centers, including traffic flowing to shared-service resource hosts by Cloud Account, by Cost Center, by VPC/VNet, and by Gateway.

See Monitoring the Costs of your Business Units.

Aviatrix Distributed Cloud Firewall embeds Layer 4-7 network security on top of the Aviatrix Secure Cloud Network infrastructure. Advanced security capabilities include Layer 4 visibility and policy enforcement, URL/FQDN filtering (formerly Egress FQDN Filtering), reputation-based Threat Detection/Prevention (ThreatIQ), transparent MITM decryption, and Advanced Threat Detection with Suricata. Micro-segmentation (intra-VNet/VPC segmentation) can be enabled on VPC/VNets to enforce greater granular segmentation policies.

See Distributed Cloud Firewall.

The ThreatIQ feature enables you to monitor for security threats from malicious sites, set alerts when threats are detected, and block threat-IP associated traffic from well-known threat IP addresses.

See Monitoring for Threats in your Network.

The Topology map provides a visual representation of deployed networks, gateways, instances, and gateway connections. The dynamic map provides an accurate and up to date layout of your multicloud network topology. The map has full search of managed resources. You can select the nodes of gateways in the map and run diagnostics from those gateways directly from the maps page.

The FlowIQ feature provides detailed application traffic flow analysis, a global heat map showing traffic trends, and robust filter capability for showing traffic by multiple properties including native CSP tags.

The Cloud Routes feature provides detailed searchable routing tables across cloud providers. You can view all routing information for managed resources spanning your Aviatrix transit network, including resources across clouds (multicloud) and on-prem (for external/Site2Cloud connections). For multicloud, cloud engineers can view the information in a central place without having to log in to each individual cloud provider console.

See Troubleshooting Routing Issues in Your Aviatrix-Managed Network.

The Alert Notifications feature enables alerts on the status of managed cloud resources across clouds and policies for triggering alerts based on telemetry data and multiple metrics.

See Notifications (Alerts) about Network Events.

The AppIQ feature provides comprehensive reports to analyze network paths between any two cloud instances. For each instance, an analysis of its network traffic, network domain settings, and route table configurations help to reveal any problems with the network path between the two instances.

You can enable AppIQ to show potential SAP applications (by well-known SAP service port) to facilitate running the AppIQ report against any SAP instances in your environment.

See Troubleshooting Application Connectivity Issues with AppIQ.

SmartGroups are reusable constructs or objects that can be queried against to support various Aviatrix features.

Aviatrix features that use SmartGroups include CostIQ cost reporting and Aviatrix Distributed Cloud Firewall (DCF).

For information about using SmartGroups for Aviatrix features, see Understanding SmartGroups.
