Illumos Net Input Plugin

Gathers high-level metrics about network traffic through Illumos NICs and VNICs.

Telegraf minimum version: Telegraf 1.18 Plugin minimum tested version: 1.18

Configuration

[[illumos_network]]
  ## The kstat fields you wish to emit. 'kstat -c net' will show what is collected.  Not defining
  ## any fields sends everything, which is probably not what you want.
  # fields = ["obytes64", "rbytes64"]
  ## The VNICs you wish to observe. Again, specifying none collects all.
  # vnics  = ["net0"]
  ## The zones you wish to monitor. Specifying none collects all.
  # zones = ["zone1", "zone2"]`

Omitting Fields entirely results in all metrics being sent.

Metrics

Sample Queries

The following queries are written in The Wavefront Query Language.

rate(ts("dev.telegraf.net.rbytes64", zone="global")) # bytes into your global zone
