2022-11-13 –, Workshop 3
Language: English
Beginners crash course for monitoring networking components like switches or modbus gateways with Prometheus/Grafana as monitoring stack. We‘ll go through the basics of snmp and snmp_exporter, getting things into Prometheus and using Grafana as Visualization. Later on we'll also touch some modbus basics and utilize the modbus_exporter. The workshop is primarily aimed at newcomers who have not yet been able to take the time to deal with these and will be more superficial than too deep.
Attendees that would like to do some hands on, should be able to install either docker containers, setup and run a local Linux VM (i.e. Ubuntu), run the prebuilt binaries or build them from the github projects.
