Network

Monitor network interface throughput, packet rates, and error statistics to identify connectivity issues and bandwidth saturation. This collector provides granular visibility into incoming and outgoing traffic for each active network interface.

Setup

Network monitoring is enabled by default. The agent automatically discovers all active network interfaces upon startup and begin collecting I/O statistics. No manual configuration is required.

Configuration

No configuration required.
