Network Traffic
The netif input plugin gathers network traffic information of the running system every certain interval of time, and reports them.
The plugin supports the following configuration parameters:
Key | Description |
Interface | Specify the network interface to monitor. e.g. eth0 |
Interval_Sec | Polling interval (seconds). default: 1 |
Interval_NSec | Polling interval (nanosecond). default: 0 |
Verbose | If true, gather metrics precisely. default: false |
In order to monitor network traffic from your system, you can run the plugin from the command line or through the configuration file:
$ bin/fluent-bit -i netif -p interface=eth0 -o stdout
Fluent-Bit v0.12.0

In your main configuration file append the following Input & Output sections:
[INPUT]
Name netif
Tag netif
Interval_Sec 1
Interval_NSec 0
Interface eth0
[OUTPUT]
Name stdout
Match *
Note: Total interval (sec) = Interval_Sec + (Interval_Nsec / 1000000000).
e.g. 1.5s = 1s + 500000000ns
