For monitoring dyndnsd.rb uses the [metriks](https://github.com/eric/metriks) framework and exposes several metrics like the number of unauthenticated requests, requests that did (not) update a hostname, etc. By default the most important metrics are shown in the [proctitle](https://github.com/eric/metriks#proc-title-reporter) but you can also configure a [Graphite](https://graphiteapp.org/) backend for central monitoring or the [textfile_reporter](https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/#textfile-collector) which outputs Graphite-style metrics that are also compatible with Prometheus to a file.
