-## Plugin Options
+## Configuration
 
-There are 5 configuration options that are configurable per plugin:
-
-* **pass**: An array of strings that is used to filter metrics generated by the
-current plugin. Each string in the array is tested as a glob match against metric names
-and if it matches, the metric is emitted.
-* **drop**: The inverse of pass, if a metric name matches, it is not emitted.
-* **tagpass**: tag names and arrays of strings that are used to filter metrics by the current plugin. Each string in the array is tested as a glob match against
-the tag name, and if it matches the metric is emitted.
-* **tagdrop**: The inverse of tagpass. If a tag matches, the metric is not emitted.
-This is tested on metrics that have passed the tagpass test.
-* **interval**: How often to gather this metric. Normal plugins use a single
-global interval, but if one particular plugin should be run less or more often,
-you can configure that here.

-### Plugin Configuration Examples
-
-This is a full working config that will output CPU data to an InfluxDB instance
-at 192.168.59.103:8086, tagging measurements with dc="denver-1". It will output
-measurements at a 10s interval and will collect per-cpu data, dropping any
-measurements which begin with `cpu_time`.
-
-```toml
-[tags]
-  dc = "denver-1"
-
-[agent]
-  interval = "10s"
-
-# OUTPUTS
-[outputs]
-[[outputs.influxdb]]
-  url = "http://192.168.59.103:8086" # required.
-  database = "telegraf" # required.
-  precision = "s"
-
-# PLUGINS
-[plugins]
-[[plugins.cpu]]
-  percpu = true
-  totalcpu = false
-  drop = ["cpu_time*"]
-```
-
-Below is how to configure `tagpass` and `tagdrop` parameters
-
-```toml
-[plugins]
-[[plugins.cpu]]
-  percpu = true
-  totalcpu = false
-  drop = ["cpu_time"]
-  # Don't collect CPU data for cpu6 & cpu7
-  [plugins.cpu.tagdrop]
-    cpu = [ "cpu6", "cpu7" ]
-
-[[plugins.disk]]
-  [plugins.disk.tagpass]
-    # tagpass conditions are OR, not AND.
-    # If the (filesystem is ext4 or xfs) OR (the path is /opt or /home)
-    # then the metric passes
-    fstype = [ "ext4", "xfs" ]
-    # Globs can also be used on the tag values
-    path = [ "/opt", "/home*" ]
-```
-
-Below is how to configure `pass` and `drop` parameters
-
-```toml
-# Drop all metrics for guest CPU usage
-[[plugins.cpu]]
-  drop = [ "cpu_usage_guest" ]
-
-# Only store inode related metrics for disks
-[[plugins.disk]]
-  pass = [ "disk_inodes*" ]
-```
-
-
-Additional plugins (or outputs) of the same type can be specified,
-just define more instances in the config file:
-
-```toml
-[[plugins.cpu]]
-  percpu = false
-  totalcpu = true
-
-[[plugins.cpu]]
-  percpu = true
-  totalcpu = false
-  drop = ["cpu_time*"]
-```

+configuration options.
