Teamspeak Input Plugin

This plugin collects statistics of one or more virtual Teamspeak servers using the ServerQuery interface. Currently this plugin only supports Teamspeak 3 servers.

For querying external Teamspeak server, make sure to add the Telegraf host to the query_ip_allowlist.txt file in the Teamspeak Server directory.

Introduced in: Telegraf v1.5.0 Tags: server OS support: all

Global configuration options

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.
