Network Topology
-
Overview
- Network Topology visualization displays the topology of VPC networks and associated metrics
- It presents a single view of configuration information and real-time operational data
- It makes it easier to understand networking relationships, traffic paths and throughput between VM instances
- Lays out information in a graph format, where the nodes and lines represent entities and connections in the network
- Collects real-time telemetry and configuration data from Google's infrastructure to visualise resources
- Network Topology captures configuration information, metrics, and logs to infer relationships between resources in a project or in multiple projects
-
Supported traffic
- Network Topology supports TCP traffic for certain traffic paths
- Traffic in a VPC network, such as traffic between VM instances and internal load balancers that are in the same network
- Traffic across peered VPC networks, such as traffic between VM instances and internal load balancers that are in peer VPC networks
- Traffic between Google Cloud and clients on the internet, and entities such as VM instances or HTTP(S) load balancers with public IP addresses
- Network Topology doesn't show traffic to or from Cloud VPN gateways, Interconnect connections, and managed services like Cloud Storage
