Examples of the traffic overview dashboards for web ACLs

This section shows example screens of the traffic overview dashboards for web ACLs.

Note

If you're already using Amazon WAF to protect your application resources, you can see the dashboards for any of your web ACLs at its page in the Amazon WAF console. For information, see Viewing the dashboards for a web ACL.

Example screen: Data filters and All traffic dashboard action counts

The following screenshot depicts the traffic overview for a web ACL with the All traffic tab selected. The data filters are set to the defaults: all terminating actions for the last three hours.

Inside the all traffic dashboard are the action totals for the various terminating actions. Each pane lists the request count and shows an up/down arrow indicating the change since the prior three hours time range.

The Amazon WAF console shows the web ACL page Traffic overview tab with the default data filters selected. The terminating rule action options are Block, Allow, CAPTCHA, and Challenge. Below the data filters section are tabs for all traffic, Bot Control, and Account takeover prevention.
Example screen: Bot Control dashboard action counts

The following screenshot depicts action counts for the Bot Control dashboard. This shows the same totals panes for the time range, but the counts are only for requests that the Bot Control rule group evaluated. Farther down, in the Action totals pane, you can see the action counts throughout the specified three-hour time range. For this time range, the CAPTCHA action wasn't applied to any of the requests that the rule group evaluated.

The Amazon WAF console shows the top portion of the Bot Control dashboard, with action totals for the time range and action totals throughout the time range.
Example screen: Bot Control dashboard token status summary graphs

The following screenshot depicts two of the summary graphics available in the Bot Control dashboard. The Token status pane shows counts for the various token status labels, paired with the rule action that was applied to the request. The IP token absent thresholds pane shows data for requests from IPs that were sending too many requests without a token.

Hovering over any area in the graph brings up the available information details. In the Token status pane in this screenshot, the mouse is hovering over a point in time, without being on any graph line, so the console displays the data for all lines at that point in time.

The Amazon WAF console shows two panes for Token status and IP token absent thresholds, with similar graph lines for blocked and challenged requests in each pane. The Token status pane also has a graph for allowed requests.

This section shows just a few of the traffic summaries that are provided in the web ACL traffic overview dashboards. To see the dashboards for any of your web ACLs, open the web ACL's page in the console. For information about how to do this, see the guidance at Viewing the dashboards for a web ACL.
