NetDevStatus

Description

The NetDevStatus collector picks information about the state of network interfaces.
The following metrics are available for each interface:

Name	Type	Data source	Description
OperState	gauge	/sys/class/net/[iface]/operstate	The oper state of interface: 1 - "up", 2 - "lowerlayerdown", 3 - "dormant", 4 - "down", 5 - "unknown", 6 - "testing", 7 - "notpresent". Details: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2863#section-3.1.14
LinkFlaps	counter	/sys/class/net/[iface]/carrier_changes	The number of link flaps.
Speed	gauge	/sys/class/net/[iface]/speed	The link speed in MB/s.
Duplex	gauge	/sys/class/net/[iface]/duplex	Duplex: 1 - "full", 2 - "half", 3 - "unknown". Details: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-net.
MTU	gauge	/sys/class/net/[iface]/mtu	The MTU value for the interface.

Configuration

{
  "collectors": {
    "NetDevStatus": {
      "enabled": true,
      "excludeWireless": true,
      "excludeByName": []
    }
  }
}

• "enabled"
  • true - enable collector
  • false - disable collector
• "excludeWireless"
  • true - exclude wireless interfaces
  • false - do not exclude wireless interfaces
• "excludeByName" - list of interface names to exclude. Possible states: "unknown", "notpresent", "down", "lowerlayerdown", "testing", "dormant", "up" (Details: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2863#section-3.1.14)
