As a result, Internet devices usually use a single path and let the routers handle the path selection. Enter Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP), which exploits the presence of multiple interfaces on a device, such as a mobile phone that has both Wi-Fi and cellular antennas, to achieve multi-path connectivity. There is another way.

On a network, configurations are constantly changing. Unfortunately, configuration change accidents can happen that bring down parts of the network. Interface dropping packets. Interface issues caused by misconfigurations, errors, or queue limits lead to network traffic failing to reach its destination.

Message integrity and guaranteed delivery with TCP/IP Because IP does not require acknowledgments from endpoints, it does not ensure delivery; therefore, it is considered an unreliable protocol. On the other hand, Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) provides a connection-based, reliable byte stream.

Flow logs are a valuable source of network traffic information in AWS. They capture detailed metadata about the traffic flowing through various components of your network, such as VPCs, subnets, and network interfaces. AWS Transit Gateways act as a centralized hub for connecting multiple VPCs and on-premises networks.

Some of these devices an enterprise network engineer owns and manages, and a lot of it they don’t. Rather than collecting only flow data from routers, or only eBPF information from containers, the fact that application traffic traverses so many devices means we need much more data to get an accurate view of what’s happening.

Flow-based network monitoring relies on collecting information about packet flows (i.e. a sequence of related packets) as they traverse routers, switches, load balancers, ADCs, network visibility switches, and other devices.
