# Nginx Stream Server Traffic Input Plugin This plugin gathers metrics from the [Nginx web server][nginx] using the [external stream server traffic status module][ssts_module]. This module provides access to stream host status information containing the current status of servers, upstreams and caches, similar to the live activity monitoring of Nginx plus. For module configuration details please see the [module documentation][module_doc]. ⭐ Telegraf v1.15.0 🏷️ server, web 💻 all [nginx]: https://www.nginx.com [ssts_module]: https://github.com/vozlt/nginx-module-sts [module_doc]: https://github.com/vozlt/nginx-module-sts#synopsis ## Global configuration options 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.
