egress traffic Last modified: Thursday, August 26, 2004

(ē´gres traf´ik) (n.) Network traffic that begins inside of a network and proceeds through its routers to a destination somewhere outside of the network. For example, an e-mail message that is considered egress traffic will travel from a user’s workstation and pass through the enterprise’s LAN routers before it is delivered to the Internet to travel to its final destination. Compare with ingress traffic.
