⭐ Telegraf v1.34.0 🏷️ network 💻 all

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 for more details.

Configuration

# Gather Netgear Switch Discovery Protocol status
[[inputs.nsdp]]
  ## The target address to use for status gathering. Either Broadcast (default)
  ## or the address of a single well-known device.
  # address = "255.255.255.255:63322"

  ## The maximum number of device responses to wait for. 0 means no limit.
  ## NSDP works asynchronously. Without a limit (0) the plugin always waits
  ## the amount given in timeout for possible responses. By setting this
  ## option to the known number of devices, the plugin completes
  ## processing as soon as the last device has answered.
  # device_limit = 0

  ## The maximum duration to wait for device responses.
  # timeout = "2s"
