Description

This plugin allows you to monitor network usage on Linux systems in a simple and comprehensive way. It collects information on the amount of data sent and received by each network interface and provides a grand total, making it easy to see the overall traffic on the system.

Additional information

The plugin execution format is as follows:

./pandora_netusage [--module_prefix ] [--allow_regexp ] [--deny_regexp ]

For example:

./pandora_netusage --module_prefix "fedora-" --allow_regexp "^br"

Copy the plugins to the agent's plugins directory, distribute them through file collections, or copy them to the Pandora agent folder. Do the same with any additional files that are needed. The plugin execution command within the agent configuration will be similar to this, but using the paths where the plugin and configuration file would be located.

Execution example:

module_plugin /usr/share/pandora_agent/plugins/pandora_netusage
