# Squid monitoring with Netdata Monitors one or more squid instances depending on configuration. It produces following charts: 1. **Client Bandwidth** in kilobits/s - in - out - hits 2. **Client Requests** in requests/s - requests - hits - errors 3. **Server Bandwidth** in kilobits/s - in - out 4. **Server Requests** in requests/s - requests - errors ## Configuration Edit the `python.d/squid.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`. ```bash cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different sudo ./edit-config python.d/squid.conf ``` ```yaml priority : 50000 local: request : 'cache_object://localhost:3128/counters' host : 'localhost' port : 3128 ``` Without any configuration module will try to autodetect where squid presents its `counters` data --- [](<>)
