Monitoring the Costs of Aviatrix Resources

Aviatrix Billing enables you to analyze the costs of your Aviatrix Network. You can review your account’s Total Cost and review costs by CSP (Cloud Service Provider), region, group of Cloud Accounts, and individual Cloud Account.

CoPilot updates the billing data shown in the CoPilot > Billing & Cost > Aviatrix Billing page every day. Typically, the update occurs 27 minutes after 0:00 UTC. If billing data is unavailable for some reason, CoPilot will reattempt the next update every 6 hours.

All monetary data is displayed in U.S. dollars (USD).

To display data on this page, your CoPilot account must be subscribed to the correct license: the Aviatrix Secure Cloud Networking (Includes Free Trial) subscription in AWS or the Aviatrix Secure Networking Platform Metered 2208-Universal 24x7 Support license for Azure, GCP, and OCI. See Planning Your CoPilot Deployment.

Working with Aviatrix Billing

You access Aviatrix Billing in CoPilot by going to CoPilot > Billing & Cost > Aviatrix Billing or typing Aviatrix Billing in the navigation search.

The Aviatrix Billing page contains the following four tabs:

  • Overview

  • Report

  • Explore

  • Cloud Accounts

  • The Aviatrix Billing feature requires that your Controller use software version 6.8.1148 or later.

  • Only users who are logged in as an administrator, with the username "admin," or who are assigned access permissions for billing can view the Aviatrix Billing page.

  • Any timestamps on this page are in UTC time. This time zone is set because your account bill is cut off at midnight UTC.

To assign permissions so a user can access one or more tabs on the Aviatrix Billing page without having full admin access, go to Administration > User Access. For more information, see CoPilot User Access & Visibility.
