- ascent
Statistics about Ascent, a free server for the game `World of Warcraft'.
Name server and resolver statistics from the `statistics-channel'
interface of BIND 9.5, 9,6 and later.

- madwifi
Queries very detailed usage statistics from wireless LAN adapters and
interfaces that use the Atheros chipset and the MadWifi driver.
- serial
RX and TX of serial interfaces. Linux only; needs root privileges.
+ - sigrok

- snmp
Read values from SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) enabled
network devices such as switches, routers, thermometers, rack monitoring
done.
- write_graphite
- Sends data to Carbon, the storage layer of Graphite.
+ Sends data to Carbon, the storage layer of Graphite using TCP or UDP. It
+ can be configured to avoid logging send errors (especially useful when
+ using UDP).
- write_http
Sends the values collected by collectd to a web-server using HTTP POST
requests. The transmitted data is either in a form understood by the
Exec plugin or formatted in JSON.
+ - write_kafka
+ Sends data to Apache Kafka, a distributed queue.
+
- write_mongodb
Sends data to MongoDB, a NoSQL database.
* A POSIX-threads (pthread) implementation.
Since gathering some statistics is slow (network connections, slow devices,
- etc) the collectd is parallelized. The POSIX threads interface is being

used and should be found in various implementations for hopefully all
platforms.
+ * aerotools-ng (optional)
+ Used by the `aquaero' plugin. Currently, the `libaquaero5' library, which
+ is used by the `aerotools-ng' toolkit, is not compiled as a shared object
+ nor does it feature an installation routine. Therefore, you need to point
+ collectd's configure script at the source directory of the `aerotools-ng'
+ project.

* CoreFoundation.framework and IOKit.framework (optional)
For compiling on Darwin in general and the `apple_sensors' plugin in
particular.

+ libusb, libftdi and libudev.
+
* libstatgrab (optional)
Used by various plugins to collect statistics on systems other than Linux
and/or Solaris.
