How to consume WireGuard data with Quix
The WireGuard Telegraf plugin collects metrics about WireGuard VPN interfaces, monitoring connection status, transfer rates, and handshake times for secure VPN tunnels
Quix is the Python stream processor, and it serves the following purposes:
- Ingest messages from WireGuard
- Process received messages
- Send transformed data to destination systems (via Quix integrations) so it can be operationalized
- Use data received from WireGuard to power real-time capabilities
Integration with WireGuard is achieved via Telegraf using the Quix Telegraf output plugin. This plugin allows Telegraf to collect data from WireGuard and forward it to Quix for real-time processing, analysis, and integration with downstream systems.
