title: Prometheus
---
To monitor the WireGuard server, you can use [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) and [Grafana](https://grafana.com/). The container exposes a `/metrics/prometheus` endpoint that can be scraped by Prometheus.
## Enable Prometheus
To enable Prometheus metrics, go to Admin Panel > General and enable Prometheus.
You can optionally set a Bearer Password for the metrics endpoints. This is useful if you want to expose the metrics endpoint to the internet.
## Configure Prometheus
You need to add a scrape config to your Prometheus configuration file. Here is an example:
```yaml
scrape_configs:
- job_name: 'wg-easy'
scrape_interval: 30s
metrics_path: /metrics/prometheus
static_configs:
- targets:
- 'localhost:51821'
authorization:
type: Bearer
credentials: 'SuperSecurePassword'
```
## Grafana Dashboard
You can use the following Grafana dashboard to visualize the metrics:

/// note | Unofficial
The Grafana dashboard is not official and is not maintained by the `wg-easy` team. If you have any issues with the dashboard, please contact the author of the dashboard.
