New Custom Exporter - Port?

[Alexandra Frincu]

I recently built a custom exporter in Go that exposes wifi network metrics from the Ruckus Smartzone Controller.

This is my attempt to learn Go through working on a concrete project.

I am conscious that it is not perfect, and any feedback is welcome.

When checking the Prometheus port allocation page , I have noticed that there is already an exporter for Ruckus Smartzone, written in Python with a reserved port number (9345 Ruckus SmartZone Exporter)

The collected metrics from the 2 exportes are slightly different (I added the client number per SSID).

What should I do?

- use the same port number (9345)

or

- ask for a new port number

or

- other?

Thank you for your suggestions. 

Kind Regards, 

Alex
