Packet captures at the edge

Packet captures are essential tools for network and security engineers, providing valuable insights into traffic patterns and helping diagnose issues. With more network functions moving to cloud-native services, obtaining packet captures across all network traffic becomes crucial. Cloudflare's global network now offers on-demand packet captures, allowing users to regain visibility by capturing packets across their entire network in one place. This feature is available for customers who have purchased the Advanced features of Magic Firewall and can be accessed through the Packet Captures API.
