title: Setting up monitoring on local cluster
---
This page describes how to set up a monitoring site, [like this one](http://eth-netstats.herokuapp.com/), for your private network. It builds upon [this wiki article](Setting-up-private-network-or-local-cluster) and assumes you've created a local cluster using [this script (gethcluster.sh)](https://github.com/ethersphere/eth-utils).
The monitoring system consists of two components:
1. **eth-netstats** - the monitoring site which lists the nodes.
2. **eth-net-intelligence-api** - these are processes that communicate with the ethereum client using RPC and push the data to the monitoring site via websockets.
#Monitoring site
Clone the repo and install dependencies:
git clone https://github.com/cubedro/eth-netstats
cd eth-netstats
npm install
Then choose a secret and start the app:
WS_SECRET=<chosen_secret> npm start
You can now access the (empty) monitoring site at `http://localhost:3000`.
You can also choose a different port:
PORT=<chosen_port> WS_SECRET=<chosen_secret> npm start
#Client-side information relays
These processes will relay the information from each of your cluster nodes to the monitoring site using websockets.
Clone the repo, install dependencies and make sure you have pm2 installed:
git clone https://github.com/cubedro/eth-net-intelligence-api
cd eth-net-intelligence-api
npm install
sudo npm install -g pm2
Now, use [this script (netstatconf.sh)](https://github.com/ethersphere/eth-utils) to create an `app.json` suitable for pm2.
Usage:
bash netstatconf.sh <number_of_clusters> <name_prefix> <ws_server> <ws_secret>
- `number_of_clusters` is the number of nodes in the cluster.
- `name_prefix` is a prefix for the node names as will appear in the listing.
- `ws_server` is the eth-netstats server. Make sure you write the full URL, for example: http://localhost:3000.
- `ws_secret` is the eth-netstats secret.
For example:
bash netstatconf.sh 5 mynode http://localhost:3000 big-secret > app.json
Run the script and copy the resulting `app.json` into the `eth-net-intelligence-api` directory. Afterwards, `cd` into `eth-net-intelligence-api` and run the relays using `pm2 start app.json`. To stop the relays, you can use `pm2 delete app.json`.
**NOTE**: The script assumes the nodes have RPC ports 8101, 8102, ... . If that's not the case, edit app.json and change it accordingly for each peer.
At this point, open `http://localhost:3000` and your monitoring site should monitor all your nodes!
