Enabling VPC (or equivalent) flow logs is the native, zero-agent way to capture metadata about every network conversation, source/destination IPs, ports, protocols, bytes transferred, across both hosts and managed appliances in your virtual network. It requires minimal setup (just a checkbox or API call) and scales automatically with your VPC.

Installing a cloud monitoring agent could work, but it seems like it might require more setup compared to just enabling network flow.

I feel like QoS network tagging is more about prioritizing traffic rather than recording metadata, so it might not be the right choice here.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about SNMP traps being more for monitoring than capturing conversation metadata.

I think enabling network flow might be the easiest option since it directly relates to capturing metadata.
