What is netdata and how it looks?

netdata is a system for distributed real-time performance and health monitoring. It provides unparalleled insights, in real-time, of everything happening on the system it runs (including applications such as web and database servers), using modern interactive web dashboards.

How it looks:

Here is also live demo: http://my-netdata.io/#demosites

In CLI via SSH you can run these following commands. One of them will update list of available packages and the second one will install netdata on your router. And if you don't want to use command-line interface, you can install netdata in the advanced administration LuCI.

opkg update
opkg install netdata

You can manually startup netdata with this command

/etc/init.d/netdata start

Now you should see it running on http://192.168.1.1:19999

(that's default local IP address of your router. If you changed it, adapt the IP in your URL)

To start netdata automatically after reboot of your router, you have to enable the service.

/etc/init.d/netdata enable

If you don't want netdata anymore then you need to write (or copy&paste) this command and it will take care of it.

opkg remove netdata
