Using Plugins

AWS EC2 Discovery

The AWS EC2 Discovery plugin allows the connector to discover EC2 instances in an AWS account for which the connector has credentials. The connector will use AWS credentials available on the AWS default credential provider chain in order to scan for resources in the AWS account. By default the plugin will only scan the AWS region of the default AWS profile available to the connector -- however you can add any number of regions, provide a non-default AWS profile value, and even provide static AWS credentials.

Docker Discovery

The Docker Discovery Plugin allows the connector to discover Docker containers using the Unix socket. Users can set custom scan intervals and specify labels to include or exclude certain containers.

The plugin uses the defined settings to scan for all Docker containers, providing targeted monitoring based on label inclusion and exclusion criteria. Multiple labels can be added for both inclusion and exclusion.

Network Discovery

The Network Discovery Plugin allows the connector to discover devices and services within specified IP ranges. Users can configure scan intervals and target network segments and ports to monitor.

The plugin uses the defined settings to scan for active services and devices, enabling comprehensive network monitoring. Multiple targets can be added allowing for handling of multiple interfaces and subnets.
