Monitor packet loss and latency from AWS to an on-premises by Raj Gupta

  1. Open the AWS Systems Manager console.
  2. Choose the AWS Region that you want to monitor your on-premises targets from.
  3. Choose Documents from the left navigation pane.
  4. Search for AWSSupport-SetupIPMonitoringFromVPC. (Document name prefix : Equal : AWSSupport-SetupIPMonitoringFromVPC  then press enter) 
  5. Choose the document title to view details.
  6. Choose Execute Automation, and then choose Simple execution.
  7. In the Input parameters view, enter the following:

    SubnetId
    : Enter a VPC subnet ID to run the tests from. This is a required field. let say subnet-2785ff28 
  8. TargetIPs: Enter a comma-separated list (no spaces) of IPv4 or IPv6 addresses that you want to monitor. This is a required field. The maximum size is 255 characters. If the IP address is invalid, the automation will fail and rollback the test setup. let say 172.16.5.6 on-premises system ip
  9. Choose Execute. It can take up to 15 minutes for the execution to complete.


Wait until the Execution status changes from Pending to Success. Then, expand Outputs and open the CloudWatch dashboard link in a new browser tab to view the test results.
