Public NAT gateway

1 minute

inbound_bandwidth_ratio

Inbound Bandwidth Usage Rate

Ratio of the bandwidth used by the public NAT gateway to route traffic from the public network

The maximum bandwidth supported by a public NAT gateway is 20 Gbit/s. Inbound bandwidth usage = Used bandwidth/Maximum bandwidth of the public NAT gateway × 100%.

NOTE:

This metric is used to monitor the performance of public NAT gateways instead of the EIP bandwidth.

outbound_bandwidth_ratio

Outbound Bandwidth Usage Rate

Ratio of the bandwidth used by the public NAT gateway to route traffic from the VPC

The maximum bandwidth supported by a public NAT gateway is 20 Gbit/s. Outbound bandwidth usage = Used bandwidth/Maximum bandwidth of the public NAT gateway × 100%.

NOTE:

This metric is used to monitor the performance of public NAT gateways instead of the EIP bandwidth.
