Hi, I have a question. I am building a gateway and I need to monitor the traffic that goes through the gateway to specific local IP addresses. I tried to use EBPF and Network configuration but I couldn’t get any working configuration. Is it possible to monitor traffic through the gateway to local IP with netdata?

Hi, @Michal_Dvorak. That is possible but it probably won’t be easy to set up. There are a few options, but the preferable I think is useing [tc.plugin](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/data-collection/monitor-anything/Networking/tc.plugin#gsc.tab=0). If requires installing and configuring FireQOS but the end result will be great. You can create QOS classes and Netdata will monitor them.
