Grafana and Prometheus for monitoring Check Point firewalls

[Chandhrasekar_S]

Hi Team,

Is anyone using Grafana and Prometheus tools to monitor Check Point gateways and management server? please share your experience

[Petter_Andersso]

No and yes. 

I am using Grafana togeter with influxdb, and the telegraf agent.

i have installed the telegraf agent on the gateway and managemnet server. It collects CPU, mem disk, networkdata, and some SNMP stuff and sends the metric data to a influxdb server. 

Then i visulaze the data in grafana

Did you install the generic linux tarball or did you manage to find an RPM that would install?

Hi ,

Can you share the steps to configure the telegraf.

You might want to direct that question to Petter_Andersso I am monitoring my infra with telegraf, but via the snmp plug-in... Petter appears to have installed the telegraf agent on the gateways and management servers which would have a different configuration than I am using.

I think the way to go today would be using the Check Point Skyline - When it goes GA...

We also have great success using telegraf (snmp polling), influxdb and Grafana

Hi @Chandhrasekar_S ,

We are already working on an official CheckPoint solution that will add monitoring abilities using this 2 products.
Official GA release is expected in the next few weeks.
