# dnsdist This module monitors dnsdist performance and health metrics. The module draws the following charts: 1. **Response latency** - latency-slow - latency100-1000 - latency50-100 - latency10-50 - latency1-10 - latency0-1 2. **Cache performance** - cache-hits - cache-misses 3. **ACL events** - acl-drops - rule-drop - rule-nxdomain - rule-refused 4. **Noncompliant data** - empty-queries - no-policy - noncompliant-queries - noncompliant-responses 5. **Queries** - queries - rdqueries - rdqueries 6. **Health** - downstream-send-errors - downstream-timeouts - servfail-responses - trunc-failures ## Configuration ```yaml localhost: name : 'local' url : 'http://127.0.0.1:5053/jsonstat?command=stats' user : 'username' pass : 'password' header: X-API-Key: 'dnsdist-api-key' ``` [![analytics](https://www.google-analytics.com/collect?v=1&aip=1&t=pageview&_s=1&ds=github&dr=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fnetdata%2Fnetdata&dl=https%3A%2F%2Fmy-netdata.io%2Fgithub%2Fcollectors%2Fpython.d.plugin%2Fdnsdist%2FREADME&_u=MAC~&cid=5792dfd7-8dc4-476b-af31-da2fdb9f93d2&tid=UA-64295674-3)](<>)
