# Network Interface Name Processor Plugin
The `ifname` plugin looks up network interface names using SNMP.
Telegraf minimum version: Telegraf 1.15.0
## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
## Secret-store support
This plugin supports secrets from secret-stores for the `auth_password` and
`priv_password` option.
See the [secret-store documentation][SECRETSTORE] for more details on how
to use them.
[SECRETSTORE]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#secret-store-secrets
## Configuration
```toml @sample.conf
# Add a tag of the network interface name looked up over SNMP by interface number
[[processors.ifname]]
## Name of tag holding the interface number
# tag = "ifIndex"
## Name of output tag where service name will be added
# dest = "ifName"
## Name of tag of the SNMP agent to request the interface name from
## example: agent = "source"
# agent = "agent"
## Timeout for each request.
# timeout = "5s"
## SNMP version; can be 1, 2, or 3.
# version = 2
## SNMP community string.
# community = "public"
## Number of retries to attempt.
# retries = 3
## The GETBULK max-repetitions parameter.
# max_repetitions = 10
## SNMPv3 authentication and encryption options.
##
## Security Name.
# sec_name = "myuser"
## Authentication protocol; one of "MD5", "SHA", or "".
# auth_protocol = "MD5"
## Authentication password.
# auth_password = "pass"
## Security Level; one of "noAuthNoPriv", "authNoPriv", or "authPriv".
# sec_level = "authNoPriv"
## Context Name.
# context_name = ""
## Privacy protocol used for encrypted messages; one of "DES", "AES" or "".
# priv_protocol = ""
## Privacy password used for encrypted messages.
# priv_password = ""
## max_parallel_lookups is the maximum number of SNMP requests to
## make at the same time.
# max_parallel_lookups = 100
## ordered controls whether or not the metrics need to stay in the
## same order this plugin received them in. If false, this plugin
## may change the order when data is cached. If you need metrics to
## stay in order set this to true. keeping the metrics ordered may
## be slightly slower
# ordered = false
## cache_ttl is the amount of time interface names are cached for a
## given agent. After this period elapses if names are needed they
## will be retrieved again.
# cache_ttl = "8h"
```
## Example
Example config:
```toml
[[processors.ifname]]
tag = "ifIndex"
dest = "ifName"
```
```diff
- foo,ifIndex=2,agent=127.0.0.1 field=123 1502489900000000000
+ foo,ifIndex=2,agent=127.0.0.1,ifName=eth0 field=123 1502489900000000000
```
