Network traffic can be analyzed and shipped to Elasticsearch for observability and troubleshooting. It is useful for administrators who need protocol-level visibility across services and hosts.

Traffic analysis can capture sensitive metadata, endpoints, and payload details. Configure permissions, filters, TLS, credentials, and retention before collecting production network data.
