OpenVPN stats telegraf

[suicidesky92]

Hi! Is it possible to collect metrics from OpenVPN? How to do it?

Hello @suicidesky92,

I’m not sure, but maybe try using this
or this with the python cl. Or you could try using the procstat telegraf plugin with

exe = "openvpn"

for the config option.

Best,

procstat telegraf plugin

Well, there are some new projects on GitHub:

• GitHub - danielnelson/telegraf-execd-openvpn
• GitHub - Thor77/ovpnstats2influxdb: Output OpenVPN status metrics as InfluxDB metrics

Most of them try to convert OpenVPN statistics logs into Influxdb data format.
