What this pane shows

Per-NAT metrics over the last 24 hours: BytesOutToDestination (the single most expensive NAT metric), active connection count, idle periods. A monthly cost projection shows how much each NAT is costing and which workloads are driving the bytes.

Key use cases

Identify the single biggest NAT Gateway egress charge.
Investigate which workload spiked NAT traffic overnight (usually container pulls).
Justify the work to move a registry pull to a VPC endpoint.
Confirm a regional refactor reduced NAT traffic as planned.

How to embed

lp.js is the single-entry loader: it injects the shared LightPane runtime (and sd-embed.css) once per page. Add this pane's own stylesheet and script; the pane mounts itself wherever the matching <div> is in the DOM.

<!-- In <head> — this pane's stylesheet -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://lightpane.io/_pane-tests/aws/nat-traffic/nat-traffic.css">

<!-- Your access key (inline, or set window.lpEmbed.accessKey from your own JS) -->
<script>window.lpEmbed = { accessKey: "<your-access-key>" };</script>

<!-- Where the pane should appear -->
<div class="lp-nat-traffic-panel" data-lp-account="<your-account-alias>"></div>

<!-- Before </body> — shared loader + this pane's script -->
<script src="https://lightpane.io/embed/lp.js"></script>
<script src="https://lightpane.io/_pane-tests/aws/nat-traffic/nat-traffic.js" defer></script>
