This article helps you deploy an ExpressRoute Traffic Collector using the Azure portal. You learn how to add and remove an ExpressRoute Traffic Collector, associate it to an ExpressRoute Direct circuit and Log Analytics workspace. Once the ExpressRoute Traffic Collector is deployed, sampled flow logs get imported into a Log Analytics workspace. For more information, see [About ExpressRoute Traffic Collector](traffic-collector.md).
