+# Unbound Input Plugin
+
+This plugin gathers stats from [Unbound - a validating, recursive, and caching DNS resolver](https://www.unbound.net/)
+
+### Configuration:
+
+```toml
+ # A plugin to collect stats from Unbound - a validating, recursive, and caching DNS resolver
+ [[inputs.unbound]]
+   ## If running as a restricted user you can prepend sudo for additional access:
+   #use_sudo = false
+
+   ## The default location of the unbound-control binary can be overridden with:
+   binary = "/usr/sbin/unbound-control"
+
+   # The default timeout of 1s can be overriden with:
+   #timeout = "1s"
+
+  ## By default, telegraf gather stats for 4 metric points.
+  ## Setting stats will override the defaults shown below.
+  ## Glob matching can be used, ie, stats = ["total.*"]
+  ## stats may also be set to ["*"], which will collect all stats
+  ## except histogram.* statistics that will never be collected.
+  stats = ["total.*", "num.*","time.up", "mem.*"]
+```
+
+### Measurements & Fields:
+
+This is the full list of stats provided by unbound-control and potentially collected by telegram
+depending of your unbound configuration. Histogram related statistics will never be collected,
+extended statistics can also be imported ("extended-statistics: yes" in unbound configuration).
+In the output, the dots in the unbound-control stat name are replaced by underscores(see
+https://www.unbound.net/documentation/unbound-control.html for details).

+### Permissions:
+
+It's important to note that this plugin references unbound-control, which may require additional permissions to execute successfully.
+Depending on the user/group permissions of the telegraf user executing this plugin, you may need to alter the group membership, set facls, or use sudo.
+
+**Group membership (Recommended)**:
+```bash
+$ groups telegraf
+telegraf : telegraf
+
+$ usermod -a -G unbound telegraf
+
+$ groups telegraf
+telegraf : telegraf unbound
+```
+
+**Sudo privileges**:
+If you use this method, you will need the following in your telegraf config:
+```toml
+[[inputs.unbound]]
+  use_sudo = true
+```
+
+You will also need to update your sudoers file:
+```bash
+$ visudo
+# Add the following line:
+telegraf ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/unbound-control
+```
+
+Please use the solution you see as most appropriate.
+
+### Example Output:
+
+```
+ telegraf --config etc/telegraf.conf --input-filter unbound --test
