This update fundamentally shifts hybrid cloud observability by exposing <strong>BGP session health</strong> and prefix counts directly within the monitoring console, rendering previous workarounds obsolete. Instead of relying on external scripts or on-premises tools to detect silent route withdrawals, engineers can now track <strong>VirtualInterfaceBgpStatus</strong>, <strong>VirtualInterfaceBgpPrefixesAccepted</strong>, and <strong>VirtualInterfaceBgpPrefixesAdvertised</strong> natively.</p>
