 This article provides details for configuring cloud metrics and logs for the [self-hosted gateway](./self-hosted-gateway-overview.md).
 
-The self-hosted gateway has to be associated with an API management service and requires outbound TCP/IP connectivity to Azure on port 443. The gateway leverages the outbound connection to send telemetry to Azure, if configured to do so. 
+You must associate the self-hosted gateway with an Azure API Management service and provide outbound TCP/IP connectivity to Azure on port 443. The gateway uses the outbound connection to send telemetry to Azure, if you configure it to do so.
 
 ## Metrics
-By default, the self-hosted gateway emits a number of metrics through [Azure Monitor](https://azure.microsoft.com/services/monitor/), same as the managed gateway [in the cloud](api-management-howto-use-azure-monitor.md). 
 
-The feature can be enabled or disabled using the `telemetry.metrics.cloud` key in the ConfigMap of the gateway Deployment. Below is a breakdown of the available configurations:

 ## Logs
 
-The self-hosted gateway currently does not send [diagnostic logs](./api-management-howto-use-azure-monitor.md#activity-logs) to the cloud. However, it is possible to [configure and persist logs locally](how-to-configure-local-metrics-logs.md) where the self-hosted gateway is deployed.
