Analyzing Huawei Cloud ELB Logs on LTS

Solution Overview

When distributing external traffic, ELB logs details of HTTP and HTTPS requests, such as URIs, client IP addresses and ports, and status codes.

You can use ELB access logs for auditing or search for logs by time and keyword. You can also obtain external access statistics by running SQL aggregation queries. For example, you can check the number of requests with 404 responses within a certain day, or analyze the unique visitors (UVs) or page views (PVs) within a week.

Planning Resources

You have purchased and used a load balancer.

Restrictions

ELB access logs only record layer 7 requests sent to the dedicated and shared load balancers. Requests to layer 4 shared load balancers are not logged.
