Container for the parameters to the CreateTrafficMirrorSession operation. Creates a Traffic Mirror session.

A Traffic Mirror session actively copies packets from a Traffic Mirror source to a Traffic Mirror target. Create a filter, and then assign it to the session to define a subset of the traffic to mirror, for example all TCP traffic.

The Traffic Mirror source and the Traffic Mirror target (monitoring appliances) can be in the same VPC, or in a different VPC connected via VPC peering or a transit gateway.

By default, no traffic is mirrored. Use CreateTrafficMirrorFilter to create filter rules that specify the traffic to mirror.

The CreateTrafficMirrorSessionRequest type exposes the following members

Constructors

Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property ClientToken System.String

Gets and sets the property ClientToken.

Unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. For more information, see How to ensure idempotency.

Public Property Description System.String

Gets and sets the property Description.

The description of the Traffic Mirror session.

Public Property NetworkInterfaceId System.String

Gets and sets the property NetworkInterfaceId.

The ID of the source network interface.

Public Property PacketLength System.Int32

Gets and sets the property PacketLength.

The number of bytes in each packet to mirror. These are bytes after the VXLAN header. Do not specify this parameter when you want to mirror the entire packet. To mirror a subset of the packet, set this to the length (in bytes) that you want to mirror. For example, if you set this value to 100, then the first 100 bytes that meet the filter criteria are copied to the target.

If you do not want to mirror the entire packet, use the PacketLength parameter to specify the number of bytes in each packet to mirror.

For sessions with Network Load Balancer (NLB) Traffic Mirror targets the default PacketLength will be set to 8500. Valid values are 1-8500. Setting a PacketLength greater than 8500 will result in an error response.

Public Property SessionNumber System.Int32

Gets and sets the property SessionNumber.

The session number determines the order in which sessions are evaluated when an interface is used by multiple sessions. The first session with a matching filter is the one that mirrors the packets.

Valid values are 1-32766.

Public Property TagSpecifications System.Collections.Generic.List<Amazon.EC2.Model.TagSpecification>

Gets and sets the property TagSpecifications.

The tags to assign to a Traffic Mirror session.

Public Property TrafficMirrorFilterId System.String

Gets and sets the property TrafficMirrorFilterId.

The ID of the Traffic Mirror filter.

Public Property TrafficMirrorTargetId System.String

Gets and sets the property TrafficMirrorTargetId.

The ID of the Traffic Mirror target.

Public Property VirtualNetworkId System.Int32

Gets and sets the property VirtualNetworkId.

The VXLAN ID for the Traffic Mirror session. For more information about the VXLAN protocol, see RFC 7348. If you do not specify a VirtualNetworkId, an account-wide unique id is chosen at random.
