Hi team,
What exactly does it mean:: metrics collected actively by
OpenWISP: Server will make requests to the devices to collect monitoring
data all the time? And In the document not mentioned what are all the
parameters it will collect from this one.
One thing I understood was PING and Configuration check will be initiated
by the server not the devices. Because of it Ping success rate and rtt and
packet loss charts will appear. How signal strength and signal quality and
some other charts will appear?
metrics collected passively by OpenWISP - This data will be shown in the
status menu of each device. If I am not wrong. This request was sent by
the devices to the server via API request.
Passive vs Active Metric Collection
<https://openwisp.io/docs/stable/monitoring/user/metrics.html#id23>
<https://openwisp.io/docs/stable/monitoring/user/metrics.html#passive-vs-active-metric-collection>
The the different device metric
<https://openwisp.io/docs/stable/monitoring/user/metrics.html#> collected
by OpenWISP Monitoring can be divided in two categories:
1.
metrics collected actively by OpenWISP: these metrics are collected by
the celery workers running on the OpenWISP server, which continuously sends
network requests to the devices and store the results;
2.
metrics collected passively by OpenWISP: these metrics are sent by
the OpenWrt
Monitoring Agent
<https://openwisp.io/docs/stable/openwrt-monitoring-agent/index.html>
installed
on the network devices and are collected by OpenWISP via its REST API.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Logu
