Traffic Log
With the Traffic Log policy you can easily set up access logs on every data plane in a mesh.
This policy only records outbound traffic. It doesn’t record inbound traffic.
To configure access logs in Kong Mesh you need to:
In the rest of this page we assume you have already configured your observability tools to work with Kong Mesh. If you haven’t already read the observability docs.
Add a logging backend
A logging backend is essentially a sink for access logs.
Currently, it can be either a file
or a TCP log collector
, such as Logstash, Splunk or other.
Add a TrafficLog resource
You need to create a TrafficLog
policy to select a subset of traffic and write its access logs into one of the backends configured for that mesh.
When
backend
field is omitted, the logs will be forwarded into thedefaultBackend
of thatMesh
.
Matching
TrafficLog
is an Outbound Connection Policy.
For this reason the only supported value for destinations.match
is kuma.io/service
.
Logging external services
When running Kong Mesh on Kubernetes you can also log the traffic to external services. To do it, the matched destination section has to have wildcard *
value.
In such case %KUMA_DESTINATION_SERVICE%
will have value external
and %UPSTREAM_HOST%
will have an IP of the service.
Builtin Gateway support
Traffic Log is a Kong Mesh outbound connection policy, so Kong Mesh chooses a Traffic Log policy by matching the service tag of the data plane’s outbounds.
Since a builtin gateway data plane does not have outbounds, Kong Mesh always uses the builtin service name pass_through
to match the Traffic Log policy for Gateways.
Access Log Format
Kong Mesh gives you full control over the format of the access logs.
The shape of a single log record is defined by a template string that uses command operators to extract and format data about a TCP
connection or an HTTP
request.
E.g.,
%START_TIME% %KUMA_SOURCE_SERVICE% => %KUMA_DESTINATION_SERVICE% %DURATION%
where %START_TIME%
and %KUMA_SOURCE_SERVICE%
are examples of available command operators.
All command operators defined by Envoy are supported, along with additional command operators defined by Kong Mesh:
Command Operator | Description |
---|---|
%KUMA_MESH% |
name of the mesh in which traffic is flowing |
%KUMA_SOURCE_SERVICE% |
name of a service that is the source of traffic |
%KUMA_DESTINATION_SERVICE% |
name of a service that is the destination of traffic |
%KUMA_SOURCE_ADDRESS_WITHOUT_PORT% |
address of a Dataplane that is the source of traffic |
%KUMA_TRAFFIC_DIRECTION% |
direction of the traffic, INBOUND , OUTBOUND or UNSPECIFIED
|
Access Logs for TCP and HTTP traffic
All access log command operators are valid to use with both TCP
and HTTP
traffic.
If a command operator is specific to HTTP
traffic, such as %REQ(X?Y):Z%
or %RESP(X?Y):Z%
, it will be replaced by a symbol “-
” in case of TCP
traffic.
Internally, Kong Mesh determines traffic protocol based on the value of kuma.io/protocol
tag on the inbound
interface of a destination
Dataplane
.
The default format string for TCP
traffic is:
[%START_TIME%] %RESPONSE_FLAGS% %KUMA_MESH% %KUMA_SOURCE_ADDRESS_WITHOUT_PORT%(%KUMA_SOURCE_SERVICE%)->%UPSTREAM_HOST%(%KUMA_DESTINATION_SERVICE%) took %DURATION%ms, sent %BYTES_SENT% bytes, received: %BYTES_RECEIVED% bytes
The default format string for HTTP
traffic is:
[%START_TIME%] %KUMA_MESH% "%REQ(:METHOD)% %REQ(X-ENVOY-ORIGINAL-PATH?:PATH)% %PROTOCOL%" %RESPONSE_CODE% %RESPONSE_FLAGS% %BYTES_RECEIVED% %BYTES_SENT% %DURATION% %RESP(X-ENVOY-UPSTREAM-SERVICE-TIME)% "%REQ(X-FORWARDED-FOR)%" "%REQ(USER-AGENT)%" "%REQ(X-REQUEST-ID)%" "%REQ(:AUTHORITY)%" "%KUMA_SOURCE_SERVICE%" "%KUMA_DESTINATION_SERVICE%" "%KUMA_SOURCE_ADDRESS_WITHOUT_PORT%" "%UPSTREAM_HOST%"
To provide different format for TCP and HTTP logging you can define two separate logging backends with the same address and different format. Then define two TrafficLog entity, one for TCP and one for HTTP with matching
kuma.io/protocol
selector.
JSON format
If you need an access log with entries in JSON
format, you have to provide a template string that is a valid JSON
object, e.g.
{
"start_time": "%START_TIME%",
"source": "%KUMA_SOURCE_SERVICE%",
"destination": "%KUMA_DESTINATION_SERVICE%",
"source_address": "%KUMA_SOURCE_ADDRESS_WITHOUT_PORT%",
"destination_address": "%UPSTREAM_HOST%",
"duration_millis": "%DURATION%",
"bytes_received": "%BYTES_RECEIVED%",
"bytes_sent": "%BYTES_SENT%"
}
