Starting with version 4.7 the CollectD provides the possibility to cryptographically sign or encrypt the network traffic. The type of protection is configured by the securityLevel option:

  • None (plain traffic)
  • Sign (packets should provide a digital signature)
  • Encrypt (packets should be encrypted)

This changes adds possibility to set up a username, password, and a securityLevel in the CollectD reporter, so it can send metrics data in the format expected by the CollectD server.

Resolves #1284
