    Parameter

    Description

    Auto Structure and Index

    If this function is enabled, the structuring for the log stream is based on the VPC system template, and the indexing enables quick analysis for all parsed VPC fields. Enabling structuring and indexing is required for SQL analysis of VPC logs with visual charts.

    Auto Add Tag log_type=vpc_flow

    If this option is enabled, the tag log_type=vpc_flow is automatically added to the log stream, and the VPC dashboard template can then match this log stream.

    Auto Create Chart

    If this option is enabled, a VPC dashboard is automatically created for the log stream.

  6. Click Submit.
