# OpenLDAP Input Plugin
This plugin gathers metrics from [OpenLDAP](https://www.openldap.org/)'s `cn=Monitor` backend.
To use this plugin you must enable the [slapd monitoring](https://www.openldap.org/devel/admin/monitoringslapd.html) backend.
> [!NOTE]
> It is recommended to use the newer [`ldap` input plugin]() instead.
**Introduced in:** Telegraf v1.4.0
**Tags:** server, network
**OS support:** all
[openldap]: https://www.openldap.org/

## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md](/telegraf/v1/configuration/#plugins) for more details.
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
## Configuration
```toml @sample.conf
# OpenLDAP cn=Monitor plugin
[[inputs.openldap]]
host = "localhost"
port = 389
# ldaps, starttls, or no encryption. default is an empty string, disabling all encryption.
# note that port will likely need to be changed to 636 for ldaps
# valid options: "" | "starttls" | "ldaps"
tls = ""
# skip peer certificate verification. Default is false.
insecure_skip_verify = false
# Path to PEM-encoded Root certificate to use to verify server certificate
tls_ca = "/etc/ssl/certs.pem"
# dn/password to bind with. If bind_dn is empty, an anonymous bind is performed.
bind_dn = ""
bind_password = ""
# reverse metric names so they sort more naturally
# Defaults to false if unset, but is set to true when generating a new config
reverse_metric_names = true
```
## Metrics
All `monitorCounter`, `monitoredInfo`, `monitorOpInitiated`, and
`monitorOpCompleted` attributes are gathered based on this LDAP query:
```text
(|(objectClass=monitorCounterObject)(objectClass=monitorOperation)(objectClass=monitoredObject))
```
Metric names are based on their entry DN with the cn=Monitor base removed. If
`reverse_metric_names` is not set, metrics are based on their DN. If
`reverse_metric_names` is set to `true`, the names are reversed. This is
recommended as it allows the names to sort more naturally.
Metrics for the `monitorOp*` attributes have `_initiated` and `_completed` added
to the base name as appropriate.
An OpenLDAP 2.4 server will provide these metrics:
- openldap
- tags:
- server
- port
- fields:
- connections_current
- connections_max_file_descriptors
- connections_total
- operations_abandon_completed
- operations_abandon_initiated
- operations_add_completed
- operations_add_initiated
- operations_bind_completed
- operations_bind_initiated
- operations_compare_completed
- operations_compare_initiated
- operations_delete_completed
- operations_delete_initiated
- operations_extended_completed
- operations_extended_initiated
- operations_modify_completed
- operations_modify_initiated
- operations_modrdn_completed
- operations_modrdn_initiated
- operations_search_completed
- operations_search_initiated
- operations_unbind_completed
- operations_unbind_initiated
- statistics_bytes
- statistics_entries
- statistics_pdu
- statistics_referrals
- threads_active
- threads_backload
- threads_max
- threads_max_pending
- threads_open
- threads_pending
- threads_starting
- time_uptime
- waiters_read
- waiters_write
