Title: [Tutorial] Munin-node OPNsense
Post by: afan on January 27, 2021, 10:02:59 am

Since OPNsense 20.1, the plugin munin-node is available. No need to use the FreeBSD repo any longer.

The below is a mini-howto to install and configure munin-node on OPNsense 20.7.

Steps to take:
- Install the plugin "os-munin-node" through the GUI on System: Firmware: Plugins
- On the GUI, enable munin-node and set the proper server/network that may connect to munin: Services: Munin-Node: General
- Ensure your firewall rules allow access to munin-node (TCP port 4949)
- Enable SSH access to configure munin-node further
- Run "munin-node-configure --suggest" to get a suggestion on which plugins can be activated. NOTE: this command can take a *long* time to execute (4 minutes or so on my 4 CPU/6GB RAM system) without any output... Do " munin-node-configure --debug --suggest" to get more verbose output.
- Inspect what the suggestions are; if agreed run "munin-node-configure --debug --shell" to generate the shell commands. For me, these were:

Hi,

Thanks for the guide. Isn't this already done when installing and confguring the plugin only?

At least for me, it wasn't. No munin plugins were enabled with the default install (tried by telnetting to opnsense and doing "list" - nothing showed up).

Where You configured this option?

Code: [Select]

[OPNsense.mydomain.local]
        address 10.0.10.1
        use_node_name yes

On the munin master system, so it knows to reach out to the address of OPNsense and can start collecting.

Hmm... I installed only os-munin-node plugin. Now I have to install munin deamon/master/collector?
I have described my setup here: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=21500.msg101053#msg101053

Can you take a look?
