UPNP Bandwidth Monitoring for RAC2V1K AKA rt4230w-d187

This repo contains a python script which will SSDP poll, looking for a UPNP capable router that reports as model 'rt4230w-d187', and if found, use UPNP to poll for bytes and packets in/out. This information is exposed on a prometheus webserver, which we can then scrape with prometheus and plot with grafana.

To use

1. Build and start a container running the monitor

   docker-compose up --detach
   # Wait a bit, verify if it's working or not
   curl localhost:8888
   

2. Add a scrape config to prometheus. See prometheus_server_config.yml for the full example, but basically:

   scrape_configs:
   - job_name: router
       honor_timestamps: true
       scrape_interval: 15s
       scrape_timeout: 10s
       metrics_path: /
       scheme: http
       static_configs:
       - targets:
           - localhost:8888
   

3. Optionally, add a panel in grafana. I've included the panel json for the grafana panel I'm using to vis the data: grafana_panel.json
