This plugin gathers basic status from the open source web server Nginx. Nginx Plus is a commercial version. For more information about the differences between Nginx (F/OSS) and Nginx Plus, see the Nginx documentation.
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.
