# AWS adds centralized traffic logs to Cloud WAN

_Published Wednesday, November 11, 2026 at 5:08 PM EST · Infrastructure, Security · Latest · Tier 2 — Notable_

AWS has made Flow Logs available for Cloud WAN across all Regions where the network service operates, giving core network owners a consolidated view of traffic between VPCs, Regions and connected on-premises networks. Previously, administrators had to combine logs from multiple accounts and Regions, often relying on other teams for access.

The logs record IP addresses, ports, traffic volumes and packet-loss counters for troubleshooting, capacity planning and security investigations. Administrators can enable logging for an entire core network, individual network edges or attachments, and send records to CloudWatch Logs, S3 or Data Firehose. Cloud WAN adds no logging charge, but destination charges apply.
