About Azure Network Watcher
Monitor and diagnose networking issues without logging in to your virtual machines (VMs) using Network Watcher. Trigger packet capture by setting alerts, and gain access to real-time performance information at the packet level. When you see an issue, you can investigate in detail for better diagnoses. Build a deeper understanding of your network traffic pattern using network security group flow logs and virtual network flow logs. Information provided by flow logs helps you gather data for compliance, auditing and monitoring your network security profile. Network Watcher provides you the ability to diagnose your most common VPN gateway and connections issues. Allowing you, not only, to identify the issue but also to use the detailed logs created to help further investigate.
