netstat collector

  "netstat": {
    "include_devices": [
      "eth0"
    ],
    "send_abs_values" : true,
    "send_derived_values" : true
  }

The netstat collector reads data from /proc/net/dev and outputs a handful node metrics. With the include_devices list you can specify which network devices should be measured. Note: Most other collectors use an exclude list instead of an include list.

Metrics:

  • net_bytes_in (unit=bytes)
  • net_bytes_out (unit=bytes)
  • net_pkts_in (unit=packets)
  • net_pkts_out (unit=packets)
  • net_bytes_in_bw (unit=bytes/sec if send_derived_values == true)
  • net_bytes_out_bw (unit=bytes/sec if send_derived_values == true)
  • net_pkts_in_bw (unit=packets/sec if send_derived_values == true)
  • net_pkts_out_bw (unit=packets/sec if send_derived_values == true)

The device name is added as tag device.
