# Asterisk collector Monitors [Asterisk](https://www.asterisk.org/) dialplan application's statistics. ## Requirements - Asterisk [integrated with StatsD](https://www.asterisk.org/integrating-asterisk-with-statsd/). ## Configuration Netdata ships with [asterisk.conf](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/src/collectors/statsd.plugin/asterisk.conf) with preconfigured charts. To receive Asterisk metrics in Netdata, uncomment the following lines in the `/etc/asterisk/statsd.conf` file: ```ini [general] enabled = yes ; When set to yes, statsd support is enabled server = 127.0.0.1 ; server[:port] of statsd server to use. ; If not specified, the port is 8125 prefix = asterisk ; Prefix to prepend to all metrics ``` > See [statsd.conf.sample](https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/blob/master/configs/samples/statsd.conf.sample) for all available options. ## Charts and metrics
