Thanks Shinobu. I still don’t understand how this resource will be managed as 
it is outside of openstack.

Yes, it's possible using inspectors.

Hi,

I am trying to use ceilometer to monitor a physical switch/router connected to 
a compute node. Is it possible to achieve using ceilometer pollster?

If yes, I have few questions.

1. From where do I get the resource ID for the device. (Since router/switch is 
outside of OpenStack)
2. I am planning to get the credentials of the device from ml2/neutron conf. 
Will it be possible to read the conf from ceilometer service.
3. To create a new metric is it enough to create entry in 
/etc/ceilometer/pipeline.yaml?

Regards,
Pradeep. S
