# socket listener service input plugin
The Socket Listener is a service input plugin that listens for messages from
streaming (tcp, unix) or datagram (udp, unixgram) protocols.
The plugin expects messages in the
[Telegraf Input Data Formats](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md).
### Configuration:
This is a sample configuration for the plugin.
```toml
# Generic socket listener capable of handling multiple socket types.
[[inputs.socket_listener]]
## URL to listen on
# service_address = "tcp://:8094"
# service_address = "tcp://127.0.0.1:http"
# service_address = "tcp4://:8094"
# service_address = "tcp6://:8094"
# service_address = "tcp6://[2001:db8::1]:8094"
# service_address = "udp://:8094"
# service_address = "udp4://:8094"
# service_address = "udp6://:8094"
# service_address = "unix:///tmp/telegraf.sock"
# service_address = "unixgram:///tmp/telegraf.sock"
## Maximum number of concurrent connections.
## Only applies to stream sockets (e.g. TCP).
## 0 (default) is unlimited.
# max_connections = 1024
## Maximum socket buffer size in bytes.
## For stream sockets, once the buffer fills up, the sender will start backing up.
## For datagram sockets, once the buffer fills up, metrics will start dropping.
## Defaults to the OS default.
# read_buffer_size = 65535
## Data format to consume.
## Each data format has it's own unique set of configuration options, read
## more about them here:
## https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md
# data_format = "influx"
```
## A Note on UDP OS Buffer Sizes
The `read_buffer_size` config option can be used to adjust the size of the socket
buffer, but this number is limited by OS settings. On Linux, `read_buffer_size`
will default to `rmem_default` and will be capped by `rmem_max`. On BSD systems,
`read_buffer_size` is capped by `maxsockbuf`, and there is no OS default
setting.
Instructions on how to adjust these OS settings are available below.
Some OSes (most notably, Linux) place very restricive limits on the performance
of UDP protocols. It is _highly_ recommended that you increase these OS limits to
at least 8MB before trying to run large amounts of UDP traffic to your instance.
8MB is just a recommendation, and can be adjusted higher.
### Linux
Check the current UDP/IP receive buffer limit & default by typing the following
commands:
```
sysctl net.core.rmem_max
sysctl net.core.rmem_default
```
If the values are less than 8388608 bytes you should add the following lines to
the /etc/sysctl.conf file:
```
net.core.rmem_max=8388608
net.core.rmem_default=8388608
```
Changes to /etc/sysctl.conf do not take effect until reboot.
To update the values immediately, type the following commands as root:
```
sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max=8388608
sysctl -w net.core.rmem_default=8388608
```
### BSD/Darwin
On BSD/Darwin systems you need to add about a 15% padding to the kernel limit
socket buffer. Meaning if you want an 8MB buffer (8388608 bytes) you need to set
the kernel limit to `8388608*1.15 = 9646900`. This is not documented anywhere but
happens
[in the kernel here.](https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/sys/kern/uipc_sockbuf.c#L63-L64)
Check the current UDP/IP buffer limit by typing the following command:
```
sysctl kern.ipc.maxsockbuf
```
If the value is less than 9646900 bytes you should add the following lines
to the /etc/sysctl.conf file (create it if necessary):
```
kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=9646900
```
Changes to /etc/sysctl.conf do not take effect until reboot.
To update the values immediately, type the following command as root:
```
sysctl -w kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=9646900
