Exporter for metrics from devices running JunOS (via SSH) https://prometheus.io/
This project is an alternative approach for collecting metrics from Juniper devices. The set of metrics is minimal to increase performance. We (a few friends from the Freifunk community and myself) used the generic snmp_exporter before. Since snmp_exporter is highly generic it comes with a lot of complexity at the cost of performance. We wanted to have an KIS and vendor specific exporter instead. This approach should allow us to scrape our metrics in a very time efficient way. For this reason this project was started.
In version 0.10 the config.ignore-targets
flag was removed. The same beahior can be achieved by using an match all host pattern:
devices:
- host: .*
host_pattern: true
In version 0.7 a typo in the prefix of all BGP related metrics was fixed. Please update your queries accordingly.
In version 0.5 SNMP was replaced by SSH. This is was a breaking change (metric names were kept). All SNMP related parameters were removed at this point. Please have a look on the new SSH related parameters and update your service units accordingly.
The following metrics are supported by now:
Some collected time series behave like enums - Integer values represent a certain state/meaning.
0:EI -- encapsulation invalid
1:MM -- mtu mismatch
2:EM -- encapsulation mismatch
3:CM -- control-word mismatch
4:VM -- vlan id mismatch
5:OL -- no outgoing label
6:NC -- intf encaps not CCC/TCC
7:BK -- Backup Connection
8:CB -- rcvd cell-bundle size bad
9:LD -- local site signaled down
10:RD -- remote site signaled down
11:XX -- unknown
12:NP -- interface h/w not present
13:Dn -- down
14:VC-Dn -- Virtual circuit Down
15:Up -- operational
16:CF -- Call admission control failure
17:IB -- TDM incompatible bitrate
18:TM -- TDM misconfiguration
19:ST -- Standby Connection
20:SP -- Static Pseudowire
21:RS -- remote site standby
22:HS -- Hot-standby Connection
0: "Nonexistant"
1: "Operational"
0 = "Down"
1 = "Up"
2 = "Connect"
3 = "Ex-Start"
4 = "Ex-Incr"
5 = "Ex-Full"
States map to human readable names like this:
1: "init"
2: "backup"
3: "master"
Expiry is either presented as number of days until expiry date or certain special values.
0 ... n = Days until expiry
-1 = Expired
+Inf = Permanent license
-Inf = Invalid
go get -u github.com/czerwonk/junos_exporter@master
In this example we want to scrape 3 hosts:
./junos_exporter -ssh.targets="host1.example.com,host2.example.com:2233,172.16.0.1" -ssh.keyfile=junos_exporter
docker run -d --restart unless-stopped -p 9326:9326 -e SSH_KEYFILE=/ssh-keyfile -v /opt/junos_exporter_keyfile:/ssh-keyfile:ro -v /opt/junos_exporter_config.yml:/config.yml:ro czerwonk/junos_exporter
junos_exporter supports SSH authentication via key or password based authentication.
-ssh.keyfile=<file>
enables key based authentication. -ssh.password=<password-string>
enables password based authenticaton, this can also be enabled via the config file in the form of a password: <password-string>
entry.
Authentication order is ssh key, if none is found the cli flag is checked, the config file is checked last. If no valid auth method is specified junos_exporter exits with an error.
Specify the ssh username with the cli flag -ssh.user
, with the username
key under the configuration file or use the default username of junos_exporter
.
By default, all configured targets will be scrapped when /metrics
is hit. As an alternative, it is possible to scrape a specific target by passing the target's hostname/IP address to the target parameter - e.g. http://localhost:9326/metrics?target=1.2.3.4
. The specific target must be present in the configuration file or passed in with the ssh.targets flag, you can also specify the -config.ignore-targets
flag if you don't want to specify targets in the config or commandline, if none of this matches the request will be denied. This can be used with the below example Prometheus config:
scrape_configs:
- job_name: 'junos'
static_configs:
- targets:
- 192.168.1.2 # Target device.
relabel_configs:
- source_labels: [__address__]
target_label: __param_target
- source_labels: [__param_target]
target_label: instance
- target_label: __address__
replacement: 127.0.0.1:9326 # The junos_exporter's real hostname:port.
The exporter can be configured with a YAML based config file:
devices:
- host: router1
key_file: /path/to/key
- host: router2
username: exporter
password: secret
# Optional
# interface_description_regex: '\[([^=\]]+)(=[^\]]+)?\]'
features:
isis: true
- host: switch\d+
# Tell the exporter that this hostname should be used as a pattern when loading
# device-specific configurations. This example would match against a hostname
# like "switch123".
host_pattern: true
features:
bgp: false
# Optional
# interface_description_regex: '\[([^=\]]+)(=[^\]]+)?\]'
features:
alarm: true
environment: true
bgp: true
ospf: true
isis: false
nat: true
l2circuit: true
ldp: true
routes: true
routing_engine: true
firewall: false
interfaces: true
interface_diagnostic: true
interface_queue: true
storage: true
accounting: true
ipsec: true
security: true
fpc: true
rpki: true
rpm: false
satellite: true
system: true
power: true
Version 0.9.5 introduced dynamic labels retrieved from the interface descriptions. Version 0.12.4 added support for dynamic labels on BGP metrics. Flags are supported a well. The first part (label name) has to comply to the following rules:
Values can contain arbitrary characters.
The complete feature can be disabled by setting -dynamic-interface-labels
to false.
Tags:
Description: XYZ [prod]
Label name: prod
Label value: 1
Label value pairs:
Description: XYZ [peer=202739]
Label name: peer
Label value: 202739
To override the default behavior a interface_description_regex
can be supplied. This parameter can be given at a global level or per device. To use per-device regexes the target devices need to be defined in the exporter config. Per-device regex cannot be used in combination with -config.ignore-targets
.
The default regex \[([^=\]]+)(=[^\]]+)?\]
would match interface descriptions like "Description [foo] [bar=123]"
.
If we use [[\s]([^=\[\]]+)(=[^,\]]+)?[,\]]
we can now match for "Description [foo, bar=123]"
instead.
There is an example Grafana Dashboard included (grafana_dashboard.json), which has some basic variables to choose your device(s) / interface(s)
