Enable Azure Flow Logs support in Configuration Center > Monitoring Center > Flow Logs > Microsoft Azure. The system downloads logs periodically, converts them to IPFIX format, and sends them to your specified local collector port. This table shows the mapping between Azure Flow Logs fields and IPFIX fields. Any fields not listed here are not mapped.
