# Monitor networks

This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB OSS. [InfluxDB 3 Core](/influxdb3/core/) is the latest stable version.

#### API token hashing is enabled by default in InfluxDB OSS 2.9.0

Stronger token security: tokens are stored as hashes on disk, so a copy of the database file doesn’t expose usable tokens. Existing tokens are hashed on first startup and the original strings can’t be recovered afterward — **capture any plaintext tokens you still need before you upgrade**.

For more information, see [Token hashing](/influxdb/v2/admin/tokens/#token-hashing).

Use one of our community templates to quickly set up InfluxDB (with a bucket and dashboard) to collect, analyze, and monitor your networks.

### [Monitor HAProxy](/influxdb/v2/monitor-alert/templates/networks/haproxy/)

Use the [HAProxy for InfluxDB v2 template](https://github.com/influxdata/community-templates/tree/master/haproxy) to monitor your HAProxy instance.
