| 21 | ## Overview |
| 22 | |
| 23 | Collect information about UDP connections. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | The plugin calls `sysctl` function to collect necessary data. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | This collector is supported on all platforms. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | |
| 32 | ### Default Behavior |
| 33 | |
| 34 | #### Auto-Detection |
| 35 | |
| 36 | This integration doesn't support auto-detection. |
| 37 | |
| 38 | #### Limits |
| 39 | |
| 40 | The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection. |
| 41 | |
| 42 | #### Performance Impact |
| 43 | |
| 44 | The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system. |

| 73 | #### via File |
| 74 | |
| 75 | The configuration file name for this integration is `netdata.conf`. |
| 76 | Configuration for this specific integration is located in the `[plugin:freebsd:net.inet.udp.stats]` section within that file. |
| 77 | |
| 78 | The file format is a modified INI syntax. The general structure is: |
| 79 | |
| 80 | ```ini |
| 81 | [section1] |
| 82 | option1 = some value |
| 83 | option2 = some other value |
| 84 | |
| 85 | [section2] |
| 86 | option3 = some third value |
| 87 | ``` |
| 88 | You can edit the configuration file using the [`edit-config`](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration/README.md#edit-configuration-files) script from the |
| 89 | Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration/README.md#locate-your-config-directory). |
| 90 | |
| 91 | ```bash |
| 92 | cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata |
| 93 | sudo ./edit-config netdata.conf |
| 94 | ``` |

| 102 | |
| 103 | |
| 104 | The following alerts are available: |
| 105 | |
| 106 | | Alert name | On metric | Description | |
| 107 | |:------------|:----------|:------------| |
| 108 | | [ 1m_ipv4_udp_receive_buffer_errors ](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/src/health/health.d/udp_errors.conf) | ipv4.udperrors | average number of UDP receive buffer errors over the last minute | |
| 109 | | [ 1m_ipv4_udp_send_buffer_errors ](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/src/health/health.d/udp_errors.conf) | ipv4.udperrors | average number of UDP send buffer errors over the last minute | |
| 110 | |
| 111 | |
| 112 | ## Metrics |
| 113 | |
| 114 | Metrics grouped by *scope*. |
| 115 | |
| 116 | The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels. |
| 117 | |
| 118 | |
| 119 | |
| 120 | ### Per net.inet.udp.stats instance |
| 121 | |
| 122 | These metrics show UDP connections statistics. |
| 123 | |
| 124 | This scope has no labels. |
| 125 | |
| 126 | Metrics: |
| 127 | |
| 128 | | Metric | Dimensions | Unit | |
| 129 | |:------|:----------|:----| |
| 130 | | ipv4.udppackets | received, sent | packets/s | |
| 131 | | ipv4.udperrors | InErrors, NoPorts, RcvbufErrors, InCsumErrors, IgnoredMulti | events/s | |
