InfluxDB integration for FastNetMon Community

For FastNetMon Advanced, please use this guide.

InfluxDB is a very fast time series database written in Go language.

To start with this guide, please install InfluxDB from these binary packages.

After this, create a database using Influx tool:

create database fastnetmon

To enable metrics export to InfluxDB, you need to enablethe following options in /etc/fastnetmon.conf:

influxdb = on
influxdb_host = 127.0.0.1
influxdb_port = 8086
influxdb_database = fastnetmon

# InfluxDB auth
influxdb_auth = off
influxdb_user = fastnetmon
influxdb_password = secure

And restart InfluxDB and FastNetMon:

sudo systemctl restart influxdb
sudo systemctl restart fastnetmon

Then you could install Grafana and try our nice predefined dashboards for FastNetMon
