Cloudflare Magic Network Monitoring

Improve your network and cloud traffic visibility. Customers with public IPs can also detect DDoS attacks based on their traffic flows.

Available on all plans

Magic Network Monitoring provides visibility into your network traffic and cloud traffic by analyzing network sent from a customer's routers or cloud environment. Magic Network Monitoring supports NetFlow v5, NetFlow v9, IPFIX, and sFlow. In cloud environments, Magic Network Monitoring supports AWS VPC flow logs via AWS Firehose.

Magic Network Monitoring is generally available to everyone with a Cloudflare account by default. You can log in to your Cloudflare dashboard, select your account, then go to Analytics & Logs > Magic Monitoring to get started.

Everyone can use the free version of Magic Network Monitoring in a home network, network lab, or business to get end to end visibility across their network traffic. Potential enterprise customers are encouraged to use the free version to run a proof of concept.

Enterprise customers can use Magic Network Monitoring with Magic Transit on-demand to monitor their network, identify volumetric DDoS attacks, and activate Magic Transit on-demand to mitigate those attacks.
